Congrats!!!

What was the factor that is "allowing" you to take the exam?

And what state?

I just graduated with 120 credits with a degree in Accounting. Im taking the spring semester off from school, and I'll be going back in the fall to graduate school to meet the 150 hour requirement. I've already have 1000+ working hours, I need about 1000 more. I plan to take the exam in a couple years.

Good luck!!!

I am in Florida and needed to meet the 150 credit hour requirement. I met it in December but it takes them forever to review your transcripts. In Florida there isn't a working hours requirement. What state are you in? I am going to start Becker in a couple of weeks.

Im in MD. I might do Beckers, although it's expensive as hell.

I like the Becker program, but damn is their software licensing policy annoying. I got a used set for $600 (despite eBay shutting down all the auctions within a couple hours of going up). Now I can't register because the usage period is expired - so I have to use a virtual machine and re image every 15 days when my trail period is up :roll:

I know you're going to grad school, but I thought I'd post this anyway in case anyone finds it useful.

You can get 8 graduate credits taking the Becker review through DeVry, 2 credits per section. 12 undergraduate credits by taking the Bisk Review, 3 credits per section, although your college has to agree to transcript them through ACE recommendations.

Get the company your working for to pay for it. That is what I am doing. Usually they will pay for it with no problems.

All the big 4s will do it, as well as some of the other bigger ones, but dont expect local firms to pay.
