MEET JIMMY CHILIMIGRAS
In 2023, 15-year-old Jimmy Chilimigras became the youngest person in history to pass all four sections of the CPA exam.
Jimmy contacted Bryan Kesler for mentorship because he knew the CPA exam was going to be unlike any exam he had ever sat for. The Kesler CPA Review team provided him with mentorship, the Kesler study guide and test bank, and within six months Jimmy passed all four sections with only one failed attempt. His scores: BEC 86, AUD 75, REG 86, FAR 80.
As reported by the Journal of Accountancy, Accounting Today, NASBA, and Inside Public Accounting.
Bottom line: Age doesn't matter. Method does.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Bryan Kesler, CPA - Your Mentor, Motivator and Drinking Buddy On Your Journey to Passing!
Bryan Kesler is a Licensed CPA in North Carolina, PwC alum, and CPA Practice Advisor Top 20 Under 40 honoree.
He failed the CPA exam 7 times before passing. That experience drove him to found Ultimate CPA Exam Guide in 2015 as a mentorship program for CPA candidates who had the study materials but not the process.
From 2019 to 2022, his mentorship became the official partner for Roger CPA Review, Wiley CPAexcel, Gleim CPA Review, and Yaeger CPA Review. Those companies sent their students to Bryan because they recognized the gap between having content and actually passing.
In 2022, Bryan founded Kesler CPA Review to combine the mentorship he'd refined over 7 years with dedicated study materials. In 2024, it became a full course with 8,000+ MCQs, 150+ simulations, and a complete textbook covering all six CPA exam sections.
In 2023, Bryan mentored 15-year-old Jimmy Chilimigras to become the youngest person in history to pass all four sections of the CPA exam, as covered by the Journal of Accountancy and Accounting Today.
Since 2015, 68,000+ CPA candidates have come through Bryan's ecosystem across email subscribers, social media followers, free trial users, podcast listeners, and paying customers.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Kesler CPA Review can be used as a standalone course OR paired with a Big Box CPA Review Course. Kesler CPA Review has a complete AICPA Blueprint mapped textbook, 8,000+ Multiple Choice & TBS, flashcards covering the entire AICPA blueprint outline, plus 8,000+ Learn N GO MCQ explainer videos that visually teach every concept. On top of this, we will also teach you HOW to pass with our mentorship program.
Learn N GO videos are 8,000+ short whiteboard explainer videos built directly into the Kesler test bank. Every MCQ has a step-by-step visual breakdown: first, the video frames exactly what concept is being tested. Then whiteboard illustrations teach you the accounting rule, walk the calculation or classification, and show the journal entry if applicable. Next, it eliminates each wrong answer so you learn why the distractors fail. Finally, you get a reusable "gem" takeaway you can apply to similar questions on exam day. Each video is about 2-4 minutes with adjustable playback speed, captions, and fullscreen. If you're the type of person who learns better by seeing things drawn out on a whiteboard than by reading paragraphs of text, this changes everything.
Absolutely. Kesler CPA Review focuses on teaching the areas that the popular courses just assume you know. We use a mix of AICPA licensed questions and professor-written MCQs to ensure a deep level of understanding of the concepts is achieved. Plus, every question includes a Learn N GO whiteboard video that visually explains the accounting logic step by step. This way you can identify areas you are weaker in your primary course and then use Kesler to get that baseline understanding so you can jump back into your course more confident.
