waiting on BEC NY 473 still, haven't slept since Wednesday, took it on 2/28.. already filled out forms 4 and 4B, just waiting on this mess.. I should start a business, score-tracking for the CPA exam.. kinda like how you can look up a UPS package's delivery status using a tracking #… It would look something like this:
2/28/2012 3:48PM – completed BEC exam, sent to AICPA database
3/1/2012 12:00AM – exam window closed, sent to AICPA exam review department
3/7/2012 7:00AM – grade finalized, sent to NASBA for distribution
3/7/2012 11:30AM – delay resulting from glitch in Windows 98 – score received in incorrect candidate profile due to failure in batch processing
3/7/2012 2:00PM – intern corrects 51% of batch; since it constitutes a majority it is deeemed sufficient (besides he is kicking butt on World of Warcraft today); intern accidentally releases 80% of all scores, boss does not notice
3/8/2012 11:00AM – electrical power outtage – 20 year NASBA veteran sets of burglary alarm when opening office for business, decides to perform easy fix by shutting off power
3/8/2012 2:00PM – scores re-downloaded from AICPA database, but processing is slow due to using Windows 98, scores not yet ready for distribution
3/8/2012 3:00PM – NASBA office closed for business
3/9/2012 11:00AM-12:00PM – NASBA breakfast break
3/9/2012 12:00PM-1:30PM – NASBA lunch break
3/9/2012 1:30PM-3:00PM – NASBA coffee break
3/9/2012 3:00PM – NASBA office closed for business
3/12/2012 11:00AM – burglary alarm still malfunctioning, office closed for the day
3/13/2012 2:35PM – score released, 74… sorry, try again
