Happy Friday everyone!!!!

If you are within 2 weeks of your test date then you don’t need to go outside, go shopping, go out to dinner, or see your pals. What you need to do is lock yourself inside your home study space or where ever you are most productive and remind yourself that a small sacrifice now means a lifetime of study freedom!

Let’s put the nails in the coffin of the CPA exam!!!!!

This weekend I challenge you to:

1. Clock 10-15 hours of study time

2. Minimum of 300 MCQs. Of the 300, 50 from your worst topic again and 50 from your best topic. I think it’s important to keep your strong topics sharp and to keep tuning up the weak ones!

3. Minimum of 30 Sims. You really do need to practice SIMS, especially if you are taking Audit. Trust me on that one. If you’re on BEC, then just review your notes on grammar, sentence structure, and such…or just do more MCQs! 😉

4. Recopy your notes from your personal worst topic twice.

5. Listen only to Ninja Audio in your car.

6. Use your flashcards when and wherever possible!

Can you hang tough with me this weekend??? Do you want to be done with this horrible crap??? Do you want your life back??? I do!!!!!! Don’t you???

Please check in on this thread to share your progress updates, for support requests, for rants, or if you need an accountability check this weekend!

So…are you in???

GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

REG: 75 DONE 🙂
AUD: 61, 71, 68, 92 DONE 🙂
BEC: 76 DONE 🙂
FAR: 72, 74, 79 DONE 🙂

3 hous on Friday – videos/lectures and 2 progress reports on past topics

6 hours on Saturday – husband had to go in the office to get some work done, so I went to and studied. BEST.STUDYTIME.EVAR. For real – I was way more focused and knocked through more lessons in less time. I see this set-up happening again – if not most weekends.

maybe 3 hrs on Sunday? – got up and read through my NINJA notes before taking my nephew to soccer practice. While he was practicing I went through flashcards on my phone. I wasn't a “mean aunt” and didn't subject the poor 14yr old to NINJA audio, even though the drive was a good 40min (stupid travel teams). Got home… and NO POWER! Apparently a couple transformers blew in the neighborhood. Did what I could for lectures on my laptop before the battery died (SO glad I had installed the off-line version of CPA Excel). The library in town is closed on Sunday, and there's no “real” coffee shop. There's a Dunkin, but it's not a good study environment. Power came on around 9pm last night – but I am NOT a night owl.

FAR - 73, rematch in early April
AUD - 5/14
REG - 8/14
BEC - 11/14
