Am I the only one who feels that the information is totally new for me? I know that it should be a review course but I feel that I have never heard about anything. I graduated 3 years ago and didn’t work in accounting field. Like I was talking to a friend who passed the CPA test few years ago and I mentioned that I didn’t remember Sarbanes Oxley act in Reg. She was totally surprised that I don’t remember it at all. Any one was in the same position and passed the 4 sections? I am using Becker self study and trying to stick to 4 to 5 hours a day of studying which seems to be not enough for me unfortunately.

I'm sure when I start FAR or AUD, I will have the exact same feeling. My major is business, business administration in undergraduate,then MBA, Few working experience in the field, individual tax return volunteer, an accounting intern, and a seasonal job in a CPA firm. BEC is the only part I actually understand, oh, right, English is my second language. I went over the materials times and times again, sometimes I don't remember, sometimes just simply don't understand. Btw, I am a Chinese, I knew couple Chinese passed CPA, like piece of cake, I don't want to compare myself with them, makes me even more discouraged, but sometime, I really wonder, is it really my thing? Can I really do it?
