October 2014 Student of the Month: Jason Zeman CPA, CMA

Why did you take Roger CPA Review?

I was a Roger Student Rep in college and enjoyed Roger’s fast paced lectures from the promotional materials.

How did you hear about our review course?

I learned of Roger’s materials from his YouTube feed.

What was your favorite aspect of the course?

By far my favorite aspect of the course was Roger. His mnemonics and personality really keep you engaged in the studying process which is the most IMPORTANT part of passing. I passed all four parts of the exam the first time thanks to Roger and I only studied for BEC for 14 days.

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

I have two sons who were both born premature and I now get more time to spend with them and I am making more money at work. Not only am I making more money but I am also seeing countless doors open to me that weren’t available before.

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

Don’t sweat the small details of any one exam. Try to get the big picture and remember you only need a 75 to pass.

Anything else you would like to share?

BEC score – 89; AUD score – 76; FAR score – 80; REG score – 85.
