    Press Release


    Jun 20, 2016

    CrushTheCPAexam.com, an invaluable resource that has helped thousands of students pass the CPA exam, has released a brand new CPA Study Guide, which includes three special bonus offers. 

    With a 1 in 5 chance of passing all four sections of the exam on the first try, it’s too risky not to properly prepare. Additionally, CPA study materials and exam fees could cost as much as $4,785 and if a candidate fails one part of the exam, they can expect to study for an extra 50 to 100 hours.

    “I 100% guarantee that you’ll pass the CPA exam the first time, or your money back. No questions asked.”

    Bryce Welker, CrushTheCPAexam.com Founder/CEO

    The study guide offered by CrushTheCPAexam.com guarantees candidates will pass the exam on their first try, or they’ll get their money back – it’s 100 percent risk free.

    “Most CPA review courses only teach “what” to study and forget to teach “how” to study for the exam, which can have a huge impact on your score,” said Brennan Mcmeeken, CPA candidate. “How To Crush the CPA Exam fills in that knowledge gap.”

    This inexpensive CPA Study Guide is the perfect compliment to any review course, because it teaches candidates how to study more efficiently without wasting precious time. The guide includes a weekly study planner, step-by-step instructions on how to navigate the application process, tips on how to minimize study time and a final review game plan. The special bonus offers that come with the guide are a CPA Formulas Cheat Sheet, CPA Application Guide and Post-Exam Career Guide. Valued at $167, CrushTheCPAexam.com is offering 108 pages of study tips and techniques for just $47.
