The CPA Exams

In another state or town, there might have been fewer candidates, but Qin Guan was sitting in a crowded classroom. That was the power of New York as a financial center.

 As the only Asian examinee in the room, Qin Guan made a bad impression on the American elites wearing formal clothes and leather shoes.

 Asians were good with numbers. That was known all over the world. Besides, they were attentive and had a big advantage when applying for a job at a giant accounting firm.

 He must be a strong opponent.

 The seats were fixed to 60, but would be rearranged during the next session. The atmosphere was quite serious.

 Qin Guan didn’t say anything. He just found his seat by looking at his number and waited silently for the long battle to begin.

 The bell rang and the papers were distributed. All the candidates began to answer the questions.
