    I hated BEC (econ and cost, yuck)…and although REG is very detail oriented, I find tax interesting…even though I am an auditor. One more exam! Woo hoo!!

    Yes, I struggle with motivation! I've taken a couple of “breaks.” I can't get through the FAR material and am now focused on passing REG in February so I will leave myself two times to take FAR before I will start losing credits.

    I feel like NO ONE SUPPORTS ME. 🙁

    3 out of 4 passed and sitting for FAR on May 31. Will lose credit for Audit if I don't pass FAR by Aug 4. I love leases and bonds.

    That's what we're here for lab. People that haven't gone through this don't know how to support us. We support each other!

    Feeling completely demotivated here too. Especially with the holidays! My last section is AUD and I'm freaking myself out a little bit because I've never taken and audit course (wasn't required for my degree). So, the “review” material is not review at all, it's my initial taste of audit. Slow and steady wins the race!? I need a jolt!

    FAR: 74, 83
    REG: 76
    BEC: 77
    AUD: 89

    @LKD.

    I dont think you need to have taken an audit class to pass AUD.

    The review materials will teach you everything that you need to know, just like every other part of the exam.

    If you're not motivated then maybe wait till after the Holidays? You can only take one section next window anyway since you've already passed the other three.

    BEC: 10/2013 71
    AUD: 12/2013 75
    BEC: 02/2014 89
    REG: 05/2014 86
    FAR: 11/2014 81

    I'm glad I saved FAR for last. FAR completely drained me. I don't think I would have had the strength to get through the other 3 exams.

    FAR is a BEAST!!! I shudder thinking about it.

    The tallest oak in the forest was once just a little nut that held its ground.

    AUD-PASS
    BEC-PASS
    REG-PASS
    FAR-PASS
