So I managed to pass my first three exams and my credits will not expire till January 25th 2013. But, I want to get this final exam done so I can enjoy life and not have to worry. Currently, I work at the Big 4 and lets just say busy season is daunting. I am working at least 75 hour weeks right now and am trying to maintain a relationship. It just seems like there is almost no time anymore.

Anyone from the Big 4 who has any tips? I am thinking of just putting my final exam off till the spring, but don’t want to wait to long.

AUD: 84
BEC: 82
FAR: 85
REG: TBA

I don't work at a B4, but do work over 50 hours per week, plus have 2 kids, plus was in school for my masters while I was studying so I can speak very well to being too busy to do this.

If you have the time and really don't want to do this during busy season, wait. However if you put your mind to it, it certainly can be done. My theory is that it is like ripping off a bandaid, do it and get it over with. YMMV.

FAR- 77
AUD -49, 71, 84
REG -56,75!
BEC -75

Massachusetts CPA (non reporting) since 3/12.
