Our Tutors are Stellar
At some point in time, CPA tutoring became a product, with massive companies focused on minimal, average score increases. Unsatisfied with the status quo, Tutor the People was founded with the goal of personalizing CPA test prep based on the needs of the individual student, not the needs of a focus group. We hire tutors who not only receive top scores on the CPA exam sections but also have a passion and skill for teaching their students how to recreate this success on test day.

Do you qualify to take the CPA?
Before signing up to the CPA, you must first obtain a Notice to Schedule (NTS). To acquire an NTS, you should apply to take the exam then wait for NASBA’s Board of Accountancy to determine that you are eligible.
You must obtain as NTS for BEC, REG, FAR, and AUD. So four Notices to Schedule total. Each NTS is valid for a specific amount of time, and cannot be used once it expires. So remember to schedule your exam appointment soon after obtaining your NTS.
About the CPA Exam
The Uniform Certified Public Accountant Examination or CPA Exam is a computer-based test administered to those who wish to become certified public accountants in the United States. The exam is comprised of four sections: Auditing and Attestation (AUD), Business Environment and Concepts (BEC), Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR), and Regulation (REG). Each section is scored on a 0-99. A minimum score of 75 is required to pass each section. In total, the exam takes fourteen hours; however, you may select the order in which you take each part of the exam, so long as you complete all parts within 18 months.
