anyone take reg after studying only a month? possible/impossible? advice please…

i basically dont have anything to do except study

[Anonymous]

In a month with that solely as your only responsibility — no kids, spouse, job, etc. Answer for me would be yes absolutely.

Yes, it can be done. I did it in 4 weeks studying 30 to 35 hours a week. I have a full-time job and 3 kids.

Even with the time do you think you'll be disciplined enough to consistently study and study only?

How long did it take you to pass BEC? Just add a couple of more weeks to that assuming you are not a tax accountant.

I personally hate failing and repeating exams. That is why I studied for at least two month before taking each section. Passing after one month of studying is possible, but risky. If your are a risk taker, go for it.

Good luck!

I did it in 8 weeks with a dull time job and kids only getting 20-25 hours per week. You can definitely do it in 5 if that is all you are doing. Treat it like a job and come up with a study plan and stick to it. You should be fine. Ot is more about the number of efficient study hours, not the number of weeks.

hey everyone thanks for the input. I forgot to add that i took a business law course last semester and when i skimmed through the 3 chapters of business law in becker, almost everything looked or sounded somewhat familiar. i can do this! happy new year everyone

B law is a smaller part of the test. I would focus on taxation, calculations, as I believe those are weighted more heavily.

[Mamabear]

I agree. Work blaw MCQ, but focus on tax. Know tax inside and out because that is where your SIMS will come from.
