Does anyone have things they do each test day, or wear, or routines before the exam because you passed? For FAR i woke up early did one last round of MCQs, walked around my apartment and talked myself through key topics, had lunch and a red bull, relaxed for a while, put on my lucky vegas shirt, and drove to prometric jamming the whole way.

Also, does anyone have an addiction to energy drinks? I feel monster and red bull can attribute a decent portion of their sales to my CPA misery.

@DaBears – Do It! Although, I doubt you have any troubles getting that last pass 🙂

@Jokami – she mentioned it in this thread. The Red Panty Revolution lives on!!!

@cmcd, I too refuse to check my score at work. Every time I have checked at work, I have failed. All exams passed were checked at home.

@supervisor – Glad I'm not alone in that! I swear by it, but was in such a rush to find out my last BEC score (to be done) that I caved and checked at work – curse lives on. Learned my lesson so in February (super busy season) I will just find out late in the day!!

I hope all of these tricks pay off for us 🙂

@supervisor

I hope you kick it somewhere else on your next try; if you know what I mean… 😉 this test is really my nemesis and I am very very nervous waiting for score release. I don't know what to expect! I want to be a 2012 alumni so bad!!! Grrrrrr BEC!!!

@MCLKT

Wow!!!! If I don't pass this time I'll make sure to get my kick next time around… I'm really glad I'm not taking the test during these days because I fell off the stairs my in-laws house and I have a MAJOR bruise in my butt (it is painfully solid BLACK) that even sitting with cushions hurts… So, lucky me!!!

@cmcd, I caved in too because it was my last part. I really shouldnt have done it either. I promise myself that I will not be on this site two-three days before score release. I get wayy too anxious especially when the first person posts that they received their score. lolz.

@jokami. lmao…uh huh. I know what you mean. lolz. I agree that BEC sux. I took it three times this year and was sure that I had it the last time but it turned out to be a fail. *sigh. anyway, I wish you the best! Good luck on score release day and hopefully you can be done with it forever!

1. Red panty revolution member as well

2. The night before the exam: I have this “ritual” of selecting a nice professional outfit to wear to the test and hanging it in the office. I also print out my NTS, and place it in a stack on the desk with my passport, wallet, and any snacks I'm going to bring the next day. It helps my peace of mind to know that I won't have to be frantically searching for stuff and printing things out the morning of the test. I usually have a glass of wine or something to help me stop my mind racing enough to fall asleep.

3. I always take the test in the morning. I am WAY too nervous to take it later in the day.

1. Wear same outfit – jeans, lucky green “Haight Ashbury San Francisco” t-shirt, maroon chucks, glasses so my contacts don't bother me,

2. Eat breakfast – I'm not usually a breakfast person but the worst thing is to have my stomach growling half-way through the exam.

3. I took all exams I passed at the same Prometric center. (I tried other locations but that only added stress) Have my husband drop me off an hour before the test.

4. The night before I write all the mneumonics I need to remember on a piece of paper and review it the morning of the exam. I tried to take all my exams at 8 am and could never get up earlier than 6 so all I could review in the AM was one piece of paper.

I passed in 2012!

BEC - PASSED - I'M DONE!!!
AUD - PASSED (finally!!)
REG - PASSED (Twice - lost credit first time)
FAR - PASSED!
