What’s better?

Take the day before the exam off to review or take the Friday before the exam off and make it a long weekend. What’s your opinion re what’s more effective?

Depends on how driven you are. For ME, a 3 day weekend would just be more time to procrastinate. Hey I've got 2 more days off to get serious. I'd be more productive if I were under the gun, the day before.

I would take the day before off. I agree with @mIa1169, having that 3-day weekend would make me sleep in and slack. There's a huge craming factor in the CPA exams… so the more you cram closer to the exam, the more you'll remember.

As we say in the the South, Fair'nough.

I took the day before off but was considering changing it to the Friday before. Thanks guys for giving me someone to blame if this goes badly! 😀

Making the tax notecards has REALLY helped and I bought Ninja for the Ethics and Business Law yesterday. Four weeks to make this happen!
