Next test is BEC on 11/9. Haven’t had much motivation to speak of in weeks. I don’t know what my problem is beyond I just don’t want to study and nothing seems to change that. The BEC material has been much easier for me than AUD or FAR. I’m already a CMA and have been working in industry for just over 10 yrs after 5 years in public, so the concepts etc are more than a little familiar.
I just don’t want to. I’d rather do the dishes, laundry etc and I hate doing those things.

Ideas anyone?

B - 11/11/16
A - 4/16/16 87!!
R - 2/17/17
F - 7/26/16 - Waiting for 8/23

Youre not thinking enough about the consequences of your actions. Im in the same boat in that i have 2 tests passed, waiting for results of 3rd & mightily struggling to stay mòtivated to study for the 4th because the anxiety i have regarding passing the 3rd.

Decided to suck it up today & go to library for 4hrs today. Really only could concentrate for 3.5 before getting on A71. Youre almost there. Understand youre mind wandering at the end is another part of the journey. Just remember you cant pass if you dont study

Thanks 🙂 Hubby's so helpful. Only 3-4 hours after I said i have a motivation problem he wants to know if I want to go out to a neighborhood bar for a couple drinks. What part of I have got to study has he missed? Last week I told him he's a terrible influence because he says would you like to _____________ when he knows i've got to study. OF COURSE I would LOVE to do something else…and you aren't helping at all! I'm so frustrated at how he can just not get it at all. If this was the first month, then I could understand. But i've been studying since January, so this has been the way things are for 10 months. He knows it's going to be this way until some time in February. He's not a dumb guy most of the time and I know he's not clueless.

UGH I just want this to be over already.

I am in the same boat. Aud tomorrow and I have not study since 3 days. My body and brain is refusing to do it. My exam was on OCT 29th . I extended for 2 days and paid $80 to get my brain relax. Lets see what happen next. I know I will had to face consequences later. I did study for 2 weeks hard and burnt my self out. But now I had to take some time off before my next exam. This night mare is far from over. God have mercy on all cpa candidates.
