The CPA Board Examination

As every aspiring accountant knows, taking and passing the CPA board examination is a difficult but highly rewarding task. Getting a license as a certified public accountant entitles you to countless career opportunities either in private practice or in government. A certified public accountant's license is as prestigious as that of doctors, lawyers, engineers and other licensed professionals.

You need to comply with certain requirements before being allowed to take the CPA board exam. Among these is to complete a bachelor's degree in accountancy from a reputable college or university, and being a resident of the state you will be practicing in.

The CPA exam encompasses four major areas, which are: auditing and attestation, financial accounting and reporting, regulations and business environment. Within each major area are sub-topics with varying weights. Passing all areas to earn your CPA license is not an easy task, and usually needs extensive CPA review courses.
