I have been thinking about sitting for the CPA exam. However, I have an undergraduate degree in BA with Finance concentration. The only accounting classes i took are Principles 1, 2 and Managerial Accounting. I know its a long road ahead. But will Becker/Wiley/Gleim review courses help to pass the exam?

A) Every tax package has its supporters and detractors. Look for comparisons in the "Journal of Accountancy", "Practical Accountant" or other professional publications. Then choose one that seems to fit your needs. CPAcomputerreport.com might have a comparison, too. This recommendation is from twenty seven years using tax software
