Has anyone done 2 CPA PEP Modules together in one term?
Since I am completely free and only work part time, I was planning to do the Core 1 and 2 modules in Winter 2016 and the Electives 1 and 2 in the spring. Is that a good idea?

As I don't want to get into Public Accounting, I was planning to take Performance Management and Finance as my electives. Do you know if any of the Core 1 and 2 modules are similar to these 2 electives?

Wrong. Any order is OK. Unless they changed it in the last few months because that's when I wrote it.Dynasty12345 wrote: ↑Pretty sure you must do the modules in the order they are given, core 1,2,they elective 1,2

Lol I don't know when you took them because the above poster is not wrong. Core 1 and 2 must be taken in order as well as capstone 1 and 2. The only ones you could take at the same time or in any order are the electivesCuteThief wrote: ↑Wrong. Any order is OK. Unless they changed it in the last few months because that's when I wrote it.
Sipie, I take back what I said. In your case PM and finance have a few topics in common so it's not a bad idea. Honestly, any combination works. Looking back at PEP retrospectively, it was a joke. I know people who left like 50% of Core 2 blank (I left like 30% blank) and still passed. So don't stress too much!

No, still wrong. You must take Core 1 first, then Core 2. Only when those two are completed, you may take your elective modules. I don't know where you got this misinformation, but that's the way it's been since the beginning.

Yes that would be why because you challenged them. We aren't just assuming. It won't physically allow you to register until you've completed the prior one as far as core 1 and 2 go. Ontario has always been a bit of an oddball with stuff. Every other province is the same but Ontario is a bit offCuteThief wrote: ↑I took core 2 and tax together then core 1 and then assurance last - that's where I got the info from. As a matter of fact, if you are in Ontario you had to take it not in order because they offered core 2 and tax first followed by other modules. Most people took it this way at my firm. So yeah most people assume that they must be taken in order but they don't have to be. One note though: I challenged them instead of taking the full module. Maybe people that take the full thing are subject to stricter rules.

To sum up we are all right. I know friends who took challenge exams in any order. So you're right in that sense.CuteThief wrote: ↑I took core 2 and tax together then core 1 and then assurance last - that's where I got the info from.

Core 1 and 2 are completely review from university, nothing new at all. It's mostlyDynasty12345 wrote: ↑To sum up we are all right. I know friends who took challenge exams in any order. So you're right in that sense.
But for full modules it's in order core 1,2 and electives are any order.
After those 4 are done (full module or challenge) then capstone are 1 and 2 in order.
So in terms of difficulty of exam did you find it review of university work? Anything major that was hard/different from university exam?
Those who took the modules are they literally d2l online readings + weekly assignment? Did you find it took a lot of time each week to do readings and the assignments on top of work? My work is getting densmore stuff as well so I'll see how much content is there to do per week

Awesome thanks for the response. By any means are you usually top of your class in university?AshleyA190 wrote: ↑Core 1 and 2 are completely review from university, nothing new at all. It's mostly
Multiple choice which is different from uni for me anyway. I didn't bother doing any of the readings and barely did the assignments but yes if you put a lot of work into it there is not a lot of time outside of work to get it all done.i found the module assignments and readings useless personally and I've taken 1 and 2 at this point.

I thought the exams were case based.
I think they recommend 15hours per week working on readings and assignments. How much time for you spend?
Also does anyone know how the relative making works? What % of people fail? 10-20%?

Sorry to rehash an old thread (old-ish but not that old) but I noticed OP is a PREP student.
