    While I've been reading what people have to say on this forum, this is the first time I'm posting.

    I'm going to start studying for REG June 17 and I'm planning to take it August 2. That gives me 6 weeks of solid study time. I work a 4 day, 10 hour work week, so I usually put in 2 hours at work Monday thru Thursday and then 4 hours Friday and Saturday and I give myself Sunday to rest. While Monday- Thursday's are brutal because I'm at work for 12 hours, it helps that my boss is really supportive. I can't study at home because my husband is a blackjack dealer who works the night shift. If he's home, he needs my full attention or else he's not a happy man.

    I took AUD on May 31st and I have no idea how I did. I thought I was going to be exhausted after the exam but I experienced quite the opposite. I felt a surge of energy and started cleaning our home. I spent an hour on the first testlet, making sure I read every word only to be dissapointed when I noticed the second testlet wasn't getting harder. The third testlet definitely felt harder (maybe wordier is a better choice). At first glance, the SIMS overwhelmed me but I took them one by one and at the end, felt they weren't so bad. The only SIM I felt prepared for was the research question, all the rest were new to me.

    Let's see how this goes…

    Was suppose to start chapter 1 today. I'm tired and procrastinating waiting on my FAR scores. I'm going to stating R1 tomorrow and hope I don't have to start all over with FAR. My goal is to get 2 chapters done the first week, then a chapter a week afterwards, leaving 2-3 weeks of review.

    Are the 1st two chapters somewhat easy?

    If you are not a tax major it can be a bit overwhelming… I think

    @MrsBing – I agree with k1zuna. It really all depends on what your main study and or course of work are. Personally, tax is easier for me than audit because I work through mostly individual taxes for 4 months out of the year, whereas Corporate and S-Corps I complete limited returns so it may be a little more difficult. As long as you put that time and effort into it you will be fine (this I am learning after a few – or more than a few – fails and quits). Just ask questions if you aren't sure of a topic. Good luck!!
