Has anyone ever attempted to study during busy season? Is this even possible? I just passed my first section and plan on taking (and passing) BEC at the end of November. With the 18 month deadline officially started, I need to stay focused and press onward. With June blacked out, if I didn’t study at all during busy season, I wouldn’t realistically be ready to take another test until July!

I want to take my first rematch with FAR at the end of January before tax season really ramps up. Is it possible to study for REG during tax season and be ready to take it in early May? Anyone have any experience studying during tax season, or, am I just digging my own grave

FAR - 70, 81
AUD - 83
BEC - 77
REG - 70, 78

Now what the hell do I do?

When I was taking the exams, I wasn't able to begin studying (very literally) until 10pm on weeknights and about 4 hours each weekend day. You'd have to give up a lot of things, including some hours of sleep, but people do find a way. If you've got plenty of time until AUD expires you may be able to get away with not taking an exam during busy season, but you probably could squeeze one in.

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