    This was my first attempt at the RAP and I was procrastinating on it due to my work commitments. I had to rush it in the last few days. I achieved a pass, I guess I am really lucky.

    All I can say to those who are going to submit this time around:

    1. read the info pack,
    2. have a clear research objectives/statements,
    3. take notes (research diary) as you prepare report as it’ll help you write SLS,
    4. have a good mentor who can correct you before you go too off the path.

    I want to thank my mentor, Ali Farooq, for all the feedback he provided, it helped me correct mistakes and get the report in shape within the word limit.

    US CPA has reciprocal agreements with chartered accountants Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

    In my understanding you will get a maximum 90 credits for the OBU BSc and sometimes less than that — I remember reading about being given 60 credits — depending on the credential evaluator you choose. For writing the US CPA exams, you need a baccalaureate degree and 150 credit hours. A 4-year US bachelors degree is 120 credit hours, you can do accredited courses to make up the shortfall.

    See this page for some further details:

    If anyone has an familiarity dealing with credential evaluators, please write your experience.
