I have a date planned but I also need to study for REG since tax and blaw is not my strong suit. What should I do???

[Ralphie Dos Nachos]

depends how hot she is

@tiramisu lol she’s a 7

I was gunna ask if your date was with Peter Olinto, but (assuming I were a girl), he’d be an easy 10. If it’s not with him, you should cancel with the girl and spend your night with Olinto.

B=84 This exam was such a b**** that I thought I failed-don't know how these things work
A=76 Slacker I am, I'll happily take it
R=81 I LOVE taxes
F=80 I don't wanna get banned for an expletive I'm thinking with "yea" proceeding it

Go with the lower of her hotness and your knowledge of Reg (scale 1-10) and do that. Good news is you can still date using this formula, but probably less attractive dates until you know more.

Heres a perfect plan, wake up early, study as much as you can n then set up a romamtic dinner plan during night time. Toward the end of the date you can play a game that tests your knowledge in REG. This part you need to figure it out

Are you saying passing REG is not easily 75 on a scale of 1-10? I'd take a 75 everyday over a 7.

You're playing with fire. I tried dating early on in my CPA journey and it was crippling. Your CPA is for life (granted you do right by the profession) but girls come and go. Remember that, and hell, I found that girls actually wanted me more when I told them I was busy with studying. A few have kept me on their radar for the 15 months I've been on this journey. Random messages, “Hey I was talking about you the other day with so and so…” Haha! Scarcity creates desire! Best of luck bud!

GO ON THE DATE! Missing one night of study isn't the make it or break it. You'll pass or fail because of your commitment over time. A small evening out to recharge the batteries IS ALWAYS OK.

I ended up taking @petes advice and enjoyed a lovely date with Peter Olinto and agency law theory. Fun!!!
