I don't need a repeat tomorrow because it'll send me into a panic. Jomarie, you've been through BEC quite a few times….any advice for someone that's overwhelmed with remembering calculations?

When I passed it something just clicked. Just keep practicing until it makes sense.

I second today for not going so well. Tons of distractions! I was able to push my exam to the 29th. So thankfully one more long weekend in between. Hope it is getting better for everyone. I am getting my game face on and getting gazelle like intensity. 🙂

Sorry I just need to vent for one second. I don't get why my husband is being totally unsupportive now. Hello exam in 8 days. Ok fine I will go to Home Depot with you because I get that you can not handle a toddler and shop…SIIIIGGGHHH but seriously get a list and lets bolt through. NOOOOOO…..90 minutes later I was like ok we are done I don't care if we have everything I have to go. And it did not end there, it was more whine and help me. I am going to finally start studying now and power for 45 minutes and then I am taking a long bike ride with the kids and NOT him to take a breather. OK venting done. Sorry just needed to get it out before I snap at him.

Day 1 of BEC final review: FAIL! All I've managed to do today is worry about remembering all the calculations and all my weak areas. I reviewed Financial Planning (and did horribly again), worried some more, reviewed Ninja notes, worried some more, researched some written communication stuff, worried some more. So practically zero MCQs. Tomorrow has to be better!

Shall we start a power week?!

Just broke up with my gf

Feels bad, man.

BEC next Wednesday..I'm here

Sorry to hear that CashMoney! 🙁 Hopefully you can push it out of your head and focus. I have BEC on the 29th so I need a power week for sure.

@CashMoney10: So sorry to hear that, feel better. Same thing happened to me last test window…bf broke up with me few days before the exam and it sucked. But it worked out well in the end, I passed the exam:!)

keep your chin up and keep pushing through.

Thanks Mom & CPA628

I guess it wasn't going to work anyways. I'm leaving to start work in the fall and she is still in school. Too many disagreements.

As hard as it is to take in, there are plenty of fish out there. Especially once I become licensed 😀
