May 2019 Student of the Month: Kristen Rossi

Why did you take Roger CPA Review?

Initially I had to pay for my course out of pocket so pricing was very important to me. Roger’s course had the most value for the price. I was also able to get the course package that wouldn’t expire until I passed all of my exams. It was very reassuring to know that I wouldn’t have to buy another course package if I didn’t pass all of my exams in time.

What was your favorite aspect of the course?

The lectures were fantastic. Roger is truly gifted in the organization and delivery of his lectures. His high energy and jokes definitely give you a dose of life through the dullness of certain material. Also, the fact that the course is so mobile friendly proved to be super helpful to me. I was able to maximize my study time on my commute to and from work.

How has passing the exam affected your personal and professional life?

“The big quiz” certainly became a huge part of my life and something I devoted much time to. When I found out that I passed my last exam I immediately felt a huge sense of relief and freedom.

What piece of advice do you have for other CPA Exam candidates?

Use the Study Planner on Roger’s website to guide you and keep you on track. I used this religiously and would have been lost without it! I’d also recommend taking the exams in the following order FAR, REG, AUD, BEC.

What Roger says is so true, “If you study, you will pass!”

Anything else you would like to share?

I was able to pass all 4 exams on the first try and less than a year from graduation. Believe in yourself and you can do it!
