CPA Review Software
I finished up my essays to get course credit for my internship yesterday! Woohoo, about 22 pages of accounting-ness. I feel bad for the professor who has to grade all of these.
I haven’t cracked a CPA book yet, but after the comments on my last blog post, I thought I would look into getting some CPA review software. I know that when I was studying for GMAT, having a good electronic simulation of a practice test really helped me prepare for the real thing.
The review software I can find is all in the range of $1,500 to $2,000 though. Becker made me a little angry because they don’t list their prices anywhere. You try to click through and they ask you for your name and billing information without showing you a price tag anywhere. I think I saw once that they are over $4,000 though, so if they won’t display it on their website, that’s the number I’m going with for comparison purposes.
So I’m still undecided on whether I need software. I might just get some 2009 books instead. Any comments?

you can get the prices from becker once you fill out the forms… you have to go all the way up to checking out though…
last time I looked the discount price for buying everything all at once was around $3500
Thanks for the tip! That’s a lot more than other companies’ prices, and more than I have in my bank account, so I guess I’m going to leave Becker review to some other students.
Well good thing we have a fix for that……
I always thought it was strange that the “B” word which shall not be named (we don’t use that word around my office *ahem*) clings so secretively to their prices. Are you not going to notice when you go to “checkout” and see a $2700 bill? Weird.
So yeah, you’re getting software whether you need it or not
