    Finally got approval from the board eligible to sit for exam. Here I come to tame this CPA. Taking FAR first, I have not received my payment coupon yet. My anniversary is tomorrow and going out for a good dinner with wifey tomorrow, will become bookworm for next 12-18 months starting Thursday. Using Ninja 10 point combo and 2015 Wiley for MCQ. Wish me luck!!!!!

    Good luck. It will be draining but eventually it will end and you will get to see your wife again. 😉

    Here's my advice….I just started my journey last December and in my opinion, fighting distractions is just as hard as learning the material. This is a test of will as much as a test of skill. Keep your head down and stick to your schedule. Keep your eyes on the prize!

    FAR - 75 (2/25/16)
    AUD - 80 (4/8/16)
    REG - 80 (6/10/16)

    You only get one shot with the spirit bomb.

    I agree with SKYNET on the liquor cabinet. Not sure about foregoing the rest. ;).

    Like anything else, if you make it “the most important” thing in your life, most anyone can pass. We have to get a little lucky to not have something more important pop up. But you don't win till you past the last exam. You will need to find what study habits work for you, dig in, and be relentless in your preparation.

    It will all end eventually.
