Graduating in December, where is my future?

Wenxue/> City/>/> is my favor website, but this is my first time to open my own blog. I don’t know if there is anyone will come to my blog, but I do want to write down something about my life here.

As an undergraduate student in NC, I am graduating in this December. What and where is my future after I got my degree?

Classmates are applying jobs to big 4 companies, but I want to get my CPA before applying any jobs. My friend A suggests me to get a job in big 4 companies, “they will pay your fees for the CPA exams”, A said. But I heard the job in big 4 companies are very stressful, I am not sure I can take the CPA exam under such big stress. “CPAs make a lot of money, so, go get your CPA first if you can financially support yourself during the time you take your exams”, my best friend Cat in China told me, “Once you got a job, you will spend a lot of time trying to perform the best, after a while, you don’t want to sit back to school anymore, and you loss the energy to get your CPA.” What she said is true, I have to agree with her. I will have a better future with my CPA, and since I don’t have a lot of work experience, my education is the best way to compete with others.

Then, what kind of review classes should I have? Online, in class, or self-study? I am a visual person, I can learn things much faster by seeing (observe) it, I need to have some kind of lecture. But there are so many companies now have all different kind of review classes with different prices, which one should I choose? After all, what is the average passing rate? How many times I need to sit in the exam before I pass it? L

Life is full of challenges; I guess getting my CPA license will be one of them.

Hello Jimmy, Thanks for your support. I agree with you that I am not learning anything new in the review classes,I need the class to review the materials, also try to force myself to stay in the class. I think that's why my friend suggests me to sit in the classroom instead of self study. Again, thank you so much for your advice, I will try to stick with my plan. :)

Well, to pass the CPA exam is not that hard. BUT, to sit down to review all 4 sets of information is hard because people are all lazy. Therefore, you must have your plan and stick on the plan no matter what happens. If you can do this, you are fine for passing the exam without taking any review courses. However, if you can NOT do that, you have to take some courses. The purpose of review course is not learning things but providing an environment for you to kick your butt to pass the exam.
