The 2024 Junior Accounting Exam is scheduled to be held from May 18th to 22nd, and there are only more than 2 months left before the exam.
Generally speaking, it takes a few months to prepare for the Junior Accounting Exam before you can prepare more fully. However, the difficulty of the preliminary exam is not high, and you can pass it with a score of 60 in both subjects, which is very friendly compared to the selection exam. In this article, I will talk about how long it takes to prepare for the elementary exam efficiently. Is just over 2 months enough?
Some people say that the primary exam is simple, it is all choice and judgment questions, and you can pass by memorizing some questions, and you don't need to study for too long. Some people also say that the primary test centers are scattered, the test covers a comprehensive range, it is difficult to find the key points, and you must study for a few months in a down-to-earth manner, or even prepare for the exam full-time before you can hope to get the certificate. So how long does it take to prepare for the exam? Let's do the math!
Estimated by the number of test centers
According to the syllabus of the 2024 primary accounting examination, there are a total of 299 knowledge points in the two subjects, of which 183 are required to be mastered, and 116 are required to be understood and familiarized. The test sites for each chapter are distributed as follows:
If you learn all of them: learn 6 knowledge points every day, about 50 days, you can complete the study.The above is only the number of days required for basic study, and then counting the exercises that take 3-5 days, the primary accounting exam as a whole takes about 53-61 days of study time, and it is still too late to start preparing for the exam.If you screen learning: learn 4 knowledge points every day, about 56 days, and 75% of the learning can be completed.
Calculated based on the length of the course
Concentrate on the basic class to learn the test points, and unlock the problem solving points in the practice class. If you want to finish both learning and practicing, taking the duration of the 2024 primary course as an example, candidates need to spend about 104-152 hours.
Assuming that you attend classes for 3 hours a day and attend classes at the same speed, you can listen to all the courses in about 50 days; 1.5 times the speed, you can listen to it in about 35 days. In addition, if you do questions to consolidate your understanding, you can basically complete the study in about 50 days. There are also weekends, Qingming and May Day holidays, as long as you plan reasonably, there is still plenty of study time.
To sum up, no matter which way you calculate it, it's still too late to start learning beginners! Friends don't have to panic, if you are a candidate with a good foundation, you can still have the spare energy to cross other exams or sprint to a high score!
Make a plan to prepare for exams and master the pace of studying
Study must be planned, there is not much time left to prepare for the exam, if you want to make full and effective use of the remaining time, you must grasp the pace of preparation and study. First of all, it is necessary to lay a foundation and learn knowledge points comprehensively. Secondly, it is necessary to review and consolidate, check and fill in the gaps. Finally, you need to mock the exam and get used to the exam room. When does each step take place? How long does it take? It is necessary to plan well in advance, and after stipulating monthly, weekly, and daily learning tasks, you can adjust and change the plan in time according to the actual implementation situation.
Our teaching and research team has also compiled a study plan for "Elementary Accounting Practice", which you can adjust at any time according to the start date! (The full version includes the study plan of "Elementary Accounting Practice" and "Fundamentals of Economic Law"), students in need can pay attention to it, and send a private message to Xiaoao in the background!
Find a way to learn and steadily improve efficiency.
To prepare for the exam, you must find a study method that suits you, the primary accounting exam has a wide range and involves a lot of content, and it is very important for candidates to be able to remember the knowledge points. Therefore, you can use some efficient memorization methods to assist in exam preparation, such as sorting out the framework first, and doing a good job of mind maps chapter by chapter, so that you can find the correlation between knowledge points and internal logical relationships.
In addition, the "homophonic mnemonics" method is also a common tip, where candidates can use the similarity of pronunciation to establish memory connections, which will make memories interesting and not easy to forget. Generally, the key words are compiled into a small sentence with homophony, such as "the amortization and withholding are all spanned, and the rights and responsibilities are amortized", "the currency is spent first for the amortization, and then the pocket is withheld", etc., the more interesting the easier it is to remember.

Grasp the important test points and improve your score accurately.
The primary accounting exam is not merit-based admission, and candidates who score 60 points and above in both subjects will be qualified, so candidates who have less study time and no requirements for exam scores do not have to require themselves to pass with a high score, as long as they can ensure that they can get 60 points.
According to the characteristics of the primary accounting exam, which is important and must be taken every new year, the examination situation over the years can be analyzed, and the key chapters of the examination and even the important knowledge points can be locked. By allocating time to the part with a higher proportion of points, and practicing more content that is easier to score, I believe that passing the exam can be easier than you think.
If you start learning, you may be in time, and if you don't start learning, it will definitely be too late. Everyone's foundation is different, talent is different, the preparation time required is naturally different, friends do not have to worry and ask whether it is too late, but should think clearly about the importance of the primary accounting certificate, and the value that can be brought by the certificate.
I hope that everyone can be firm in their determination to prepare for the exam, after all, the Junior Accounting Exam is only held once a year, and if you miss it, you will have to wait another year. With such a competitive market, it is crucial to obtain a Junior Accounting Certificate as early as possible.
