CMA Exam 1 vs 2 Difficulty?

  • 1.  CMA Exam 1 vs 2 Difficulty?

    Posted 04-13-2020 07:06 PM
    Hello everyone,

    I would like to proudly say I passed CMA exam 2 today. It took me two tries. Congrats to everyone who passed and for those who didnt. Dont give up! Keep trying!
    Anyhow, I went backwards and started exam 2 first. For those who have completed the CMA or tested for both parts. Can you please give details on the difficulty between the two? Key differences? What can I expect from Exam 1? More study time? More anyaltical? More calculations? More concept?

    FYI, I am a Finance Major but have worked Accounting my whole career and also hold a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE).
