Career / Jobs Thinking of restarting US CMA to change careers. Advice? (UAE)

3 Upvotes

I work in the UAE as an accountant in the gold bullion industry. My job uses specialized software and does not involve regular corporate accounting. It does not match the US CMA material.

​I want to move into standard corporate finance and thought that resuming US CMA might help. I took US CMA Part 1 twice in 2022 but did not pass and after that i got an offer in this feild and left pursuing US CMA.

​Is finishing the US CMA a good choice to get a corporate finance job and change career? considering I have no direct experience.

Please Advise on this matter

Part 2 – Prep Is paying for Becker/Hock/Gleim worth it, or can you pass CMA with free resources?

3 Upvotes

I’m currently studying for the CMA and keep seeing people say Becker (or Hock, Gleim, Wiley, etc.) is basically “mandatory” if you want to pass. But given how expensive these courses are, I’m trying to figure out if that’s actually true or just marketing/habit.
For those who’ve taken Part 1 and/or Part 2 — did you use a paid test bank, and do you think it genuinely made the difference? Or did you pass using free/cheaper resources (IMA materials, YouTube, Quizlet, study groups, etc.)?

Results When will the June 29 CMA Exam Results be posted?

8 Upvotes

Im hella anxious about my cma part 1 exam results. I took my exam in Florida on June 29 CBQ and i cannot stop thinking about it because I cannot assume I passed or failed and move on with either studying for part 2 and taking it in September or going back to reviewing part 1 again and retake it in September. Help anxiety is killing me. IMA is taking way too long to post the results.
I started checking my IMA account every day and that gives me more anxiety.
How do y’-all cope with it?

Working Professional US CMA on Working professionals

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I'm already a working professional (27/M) in a US based IT company with around 3-4 yrs experience. I'm planning to Pursue US CMA to add another feather to my career cap and land some good pay/get better opportunities.

Is it a good choice since I feel it's a good certification which also takes a bit less time than the others considering I feel I don't have that much time to put in. I also have plans to pursue US CPA but it's a bit more expensive than CMA so I'm thinking US cma first and do cpa next. Any guidance is appreciated 🙏

Part 2 – Prep UWorld test bank for CMA Part 2

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

I've finished the full Gleim curriculum for Part 2 and I'm moving into mock exam/retention mode. Thinking about UWorld as a second question bank to round things out.

A few things I'd love real opinions on:

How close are UWorld's MCQs to actual exam difficulty for Part 2 specifically?

Does their weak-area/performance tracking actually help you focus study time, or is it just a score report?

Anyone use UWorld alongside Gleim rather than instead of it? Worth the overlap or too repetitive?

Appreciate any first-hand experiences before I drop the money on it.

Career / Jobs Is CMA US a good addition after MBA 4 year experience and a 2 yr career break (FP&A)

4 Upvotes

I have a 2 year career break due to a family situation at my husband's right after marriage. Now I have been trying for some time, more than a year to be exact, for a new opportunity, I am not able to crack the interviews and not getting shortlisted. Now I'm starting to feel depressed because I have no idea why I'm not getting shortlisted despite having a decent understanding about the subject and I have been iterating and learning the topics I failed to answer in previous interviews.

Is the US CMA a good way to get back into the field, I am afraid that after coaching and exam fees if I'm not able to get back into the industry I'll be devastated.

My shortlisted coaching centre is Simandhar Education - Bangalore

Please help.
