Best Advice for How to Pass the CPA Exam
Hello, Future CPA!
How are your CPA studies going? The 2026 CPA pass rates are starting to come out, and the news is up and down. While CPA candidates are seeing high rates for some sections (like the new TCP Discipline Section), other sections have pass rates below 50%.
So what does this mean for you? Well, the pass rates suggest that you need to be prepared and have a good study plan. But think of it this way: If half of CPA candidates are failing the exam, that means that half of them are passing, too.
I’ve compiled my best tips to make sure you’re in the group of CPA candidates who pass their exams! I even have suggestions for How to Pass the CPA Exam in less than 6 months (if you’re working full-time, too).
Of course, the best way to study efficiently is by using a good review course. Becker CPA is used by more candidates than any other course. (It’s the one I used, and I passed all 4 sections on my first try!) And for a short time, IPass readers can take advantage of Becker CPA’s save 35% offer and get the best deal on the Becker Pro course (the most popular one).
Happy studying,
Stephanie
