You Can Pass the CPA Exam: Get Motivated: Knowledge and Confidence-Building Techniques

To pass the CPA Exam, learning everything is only half the battle.

The other half is getting psyched.

With an 85% failure rate for many first-time takers, the CPA exam is the biggest hurdle an accounting student faces before embarking on a professional career. A grueling, two-day ordeal, the CPA exam is an accounting triathlon--not only testing every detail and aspect of accounting methodology and law, but also the test taker's stamina and psychological preparedness.

For test takers fully intent on passing the first time out, You Can Pass the CPA Exam: Get Motivated is the ultimate exam coach. It helps you customize your own study plan, with detailed tips on cracking all sorts of questions, and, unlike other exam prep guides, gets you acquainted with the actual exam experience via a supplemental CD. By exam day, you'll be thoroughly practiced and mentally prepared for every question type--so you can actually make an educated guess for even an impossible-to-figure multiple choice question and confidently attack a tough essay question--and ultimately, control the outcome of the exam.

Here's what your CPA exam coaching regimen includes:
* A 60-minute audio CD of the author walking you through the exam, the test-taking environment--with advice on how to stay on top of it
* Practice questions from previous CPA exams
* How to divide the wealth of study material into manageable, bite- sized chunks
* Strategies for staying motivated and focused throughout your preparation period--and during the exam itself

Fully compatible with other Wiley CPA exam study products, You Can Pass is a useful addition to any existing study program. With its detailed exam-taking strategies, question-cracking tips, methodical practice regimen, and confidence-building techniques, You Can Pass the CPA Exam is the ultimate preparation guide to help you psych yourself up--and succeed--on the first try.
