	Hi All, Now that I have decided to take up CPA US, I am pretty confused which classes to join. I guess the choice is between Becker and Miles. Cost is less in Miles than Becker but then Becker is an older and has good experiencing in conducting these reviews. Another question is that is taking classed mandatory????.....bcos they all cost close to $2000......thats 1lac INR. What if I buy the materials and do self study. I am pretty confused bcos the cost savings are huge but then I dont know if attending the classes is really helpful. I would really appreciate some guidance from the fellow members especially if someone has already done/doing CPA. Also suggest which one is a better class to join (if at all required)   Regards, adutta

There are a bunch of different options out there for you. I think it depends on your current knowledge and learning style. Each course is slightly different, so it might be a good idea to examine each before you make a decision. Many of the companies offer free trials. I would highly recommend using one of those. Here's a website that reviews top CPA review courses. It gives some interesting insights into each course.

You have an option not to opt for the classes, or opt for classroom training only or for online training (where you'd be given pre-recorded video lectures) only or for both classroom and online training with Miles Education. If you want to go for only the materials but no classes, you'll pay lesser when compared to folks taking up the materials along with classes (be it online or regular classes). I suggest you call the Miles team and enquire about the different options you have. One other advantage of Miles is that it is the largest and most trusted CPA course provider in the whole of the Indian subcontinent!
