    I’ve had a few requests for April/May Study Groups…March will be here before you know it.

    In order to take an early April exam, you should begin studying…now. 🙂

    Thanks @F15hy! I am using Becker and WTB, along with the Ninja notes. I think I'm going to tackle MCQs and really focus on JEs as well (seemed to be a killer in February)

    CPA, CFE
    CISA- Experience will be completed by August 2016

    The Ninja notes and audio were a great supplement. And yes, become very proficient in your JE making abilities, that's very important.

    Fortunately for my studying, the kids did not behave well at my parents' house today. Guess who gets early bedtimes as punishment and who gets an extra hour of studying? Oh yeah–starting in 15 minutes! I WILL conquer Statement of Cash Flows before the night is out!

    #560676

    CPAMom-haha love it. You get to put them to bed early, get extra studying and you didn't even have to suffer with their bad behavior!

    Ok gang..fixed assets….annnnd….GO GO GO!!

    MBA,CMA,CPA, CFF?, ABV?

    A win-win-win for me! FYI I have done a lot with Fixed assets as work so even though I'm not studying it right now I may be able to help out some. Bring on the questions!

    Is there anyone that is using Becker. I am so not in the same area of study as everyone else, I am just finishing up Chapter 3. Marketable securities, cost and equity method, consolidated financials, acquisition and intercompany transactions.

    Anyone else on the same page as me? Trying to gage if I am falling behind the power curve.

    @CPAMommy I always think an early bed time is God's gift to us for all the work we put in as parents ha ha ha. If I have any questions I will definitely send them your way.

    Just finished a few pages in fixed assets…I'm hoping to be done with it by Mid-Day Friday. Work study session done! Time to go and fight for a seat on the train so I can keep on keeping on.

    Of course I'll be listening to some Fixed Assets on the way to the train.

    Good luck everyone with their studying!

    I'm not going in order of my study manual. I am tackling topics based on how long the chapters are and spreading that evenly over 5 weeks so this week I'm covering the 5 smallest chapters in Wiley–Inventory, Statement of Cash Flows, Investments, Miscellaneous, and Not for Profit. No particular order. Plus–you may be surprised at what people could answer now since this may be a retake for some people and others, like myself, that studied in Q1 shooting for a February test date, but had to move our tests to April for various reasons. I have studied everything, but started over from square 1 when I pushed my test back to make sure I gave as many sections as I could an adequate amount of attention. Don't wait to post questions. Helping each other will help everyone. Not just the one answering the question and not the one asking the question, but everyone on the thread.

    So after laying on my babies bedroom floor waiting her out to go to sleep, I am awake and about to continue my lectures on Earnings per Share (mod 15 for Wiley) and MAYBE start on Investments.

    Jennibfox: sounds like we are on the same path. I hope to complete 4 this weekend. I take forever because I will not move off the MCQ until I score in the 90's. That's retaking all the questions over…not using notesbooks and writing the problem every time I get it wrong. Normally takes three tries…first one is in the dismal 60's…which means it takes me almost three hours.

    Anyway…can we post question from the MC? I have one that I am not grasping.

    BTW….scared as all get out as this if my first test.

    Thanks

    I know that feeling. All 3 of mine share a room, 2 in bunk beds and 1 in a crib. I just knew I was going to have the two older ones popping up multiple times or the baby screaming for attention since my husband is at work (they don't play daddy like they do mommy), but all has been quiet in this house (knock on wood). I'm almost done with SOCF. Investments are up next for me too. I hate bonds and will need lots of help nailing down that material.
