I posted this in the DONE thread, but I didn’t want it to get lost in the shuffle without you all knowing how truly grateful I am for you.

I can’t believe I can finally post in this thread. I am so excited and I don’t know what to type, but I know I owe all of you that have supported me along the way a great deal of gratitude. There is no way I could list out everyone, but I will try. Please forgive me if I forget you. I’ve been at this a long time and had so many positive interactions.

To Jeff–Thanks for creating this site. I went through BEC and AUD before I realized this site existed and it was the loneliest experience. I felt like I was the only person taking this exam and no one understood what it entailed or why I had to study so much or even what this meant to me or my career. So thank you for giving us a place to make this process less isolating. Also, thank you for your study materials. The Ninja Notes, Audio, and MCQ were my saving grace for AUD, FAR, and REG. And the study forums–Although you tried to keep my locked out 🙂 , the people that participated were amazing and it was wonderful to have a place to go to focus only on my current exam. The explanations, the quizzing, the support…there are no words to truly express the importance and the role it all played in my passing this enormous exam.

To my study buddies in REG Q4 group–zubairs, wannabe, Kemy, Bucky, sullivan, CPAHopeful, 2014CPA, taxman89–you guys were great. The quizzing was awesome and really pushed me over to the passing side of 75. Thank you all so much.

To my Q2 FAR group–NJPRU, wannabe, howmanyletters, JRosen, zubairs, teetee, Kenada, AleFLCPA, spartan, Amor, Amay–the support and encouragement and inspiring words and positive attitudes really made me believe in myself and my ability to pass this exam. Thank you!

To everyone else that has supported me along the way (Kricket, NYCAccountant, and many many more), I hope I can return the favor in some way if I haven’t already.

Ahhhh so happy for you mama I knew you would do it this time! That Q2 FAR group was just awesome and for my first exam helped set me on my way on a positive note. Haven't had a group quite like it since but the community in general is just amazing. Inspiration…sounding board…study questions…what more could you ask for.

How are you celebrating????

MBA,CMA,CPA, CFF?, ABV?

Now that you're a Mom,CPA now, can you be a Mod for A71?

[Anonymous]

I agree with your comments on the A71 community and our study group. Q4 REG was pretty good too, but the FAR family started it all.

Right now I am rocking my 1 year old while I check the coupon matchups online and listen to my 5 year old tell me ALL about her day. She's going a mile a minute. She's gets it from her Mama. 🙂 My parents are cooking me a dinner of my choosing (fried okra and cubed steak–yummy!!!) On Saturday I will be celebrating with large quantities of alcohol sans kids. 🙂 How did you celebrate? I am going to guess it has something to do with food. 🙂

Congratulations Mama,

Thank you for running all those late night quizzes in REG. It was a great way to break up my study routine. I really appreciate you taking the time to do that.

Good luck with your future endeavors.

[Anonymous]

I think we all did great with the quizzing. I am 100% certain that it was a big reason why I passed. Good luck guys. I will be checking in. That is of course if I ever actually get off of here. 🙂
