    For each exam so far, my husband and I have picked a new restaurant to visit if I pass. For FAR, I rewarded myself with a meal at an Israeli restaurant in Philly. For REG, I got a meal at a Top Chef contestant’s new restaurant, also in Philly,

    Luckily, I will be enjoying a nice stuffed lobster (DH has never one!!) at my favorite Spanish restaurant in North Jersey very soon. šŸ™‚

    What is your reward??? Does it help you get through the endless hours of studying?

    F- 7/13- 84
    R- 10/13- 79
    A- 11/13- 99
    B- 1/14- 86

    This exam ALMOST defeated me back in 2006-2008, but I came back and WON!

    I wish I lived some place where we had more than a drive-thru taco bell… and that is 10 minutes away. lol My reward is usually a few days of zero study and playing video games.

    for a passing score on one section, a nice dinner with the hubby. Once I pass all four sections, my hubby has agreed to a Disney Cruise for the family. Two down, two to go. I'm waiting for the score for section 3. Please let me have a passing score.

    Just took what could be my last exam. Crossing my fingers, will know Dec 20. Came home from test and informed husband that he is taking me out to dinner tonight to either celebrate being unofficially done or the fact I will try again in January. This exam is brutal, I think just surviving a test should be celebrated šŸ™‚

    REG 49,72,74,82
    AUD 73,83
    BEC 74,76
    FAR 80
    After nine tests I am finally DONE

    I do treat myself to some me time (Pinball arcade, Beer, Music), but I have found that giving my spouse some much needed attention is the healthiest. She frequently requests that I stop talking about this dumb test…. LOL

    If I fail a test, listening to Lightning Bolt -Wonderful Rainbow in its entirety will take care of internal aggression (Normally ready for it end mid way through. How do two people make that much noise???)

    If I pass I like to rock out to: Thee oh Sees – Help

    Once the exam is done, I am looking for a cruise and I will send an updated resume to some head hunters.
