Miles is the best coaching center for US CMA, and here's why:
- Concept-based learning - All of us have, at some point of time, come across coaching centers with little or no focus on concepts when it comes to teaching. While such coaching centers encourage students only to understand and remember, Miles has built its entire teaching/coaching on the principle of concept-based learning helping students not only to understand and remember, but also to analyse and apply the concepts they learn, on exam questions and problems. Where coaching centers provide lecture videos having a sitting instructor making you highlight your books, Miles provides you with detailed and concept-focused videos with concepts on whiteboard and annotations/highlights on book. - Lead instructors involvement - What is more exciting than having the lead instructor take classes for you, helping you with the exam preparation? Yes, while students only find the lead instructors on videos with other coaching centers, at Miles, live-online training and face-to-face masterclasses are conducted by India's favourite CMA instructor - Varun Jain. - Pioneers in CMA prep - Miles is the leader when it comes to US CMA and US CPA review with a good number of offices, and partnerships with MNCs across India. - Placement Assurance - One can REAP the benefits of holding a CMA designation, if he takes up the job opportunities to exercise value and expertise. On clearing your US CMA exams, Miles assures placement opportunities with Big4s of the accounting industry and various other MNCs in India. Where most coaching centers find placements to be a gray area, Miles gives you opportunities to explore and excel.

The first stage is the Common Proficiency Test which has 6 exams. Second stage is known as the Integrated Professional Competence Course with 7 exams and the third stage is Final examination which has 8 exams to clear. To clear each CPA exam, you need to score above the 75th Percentile to pass the exam.
