I’ve had exams cancelled multiple times due to covid. They’ll let you reschedule. My advice would be to not push it off too far of you already put the work in. Thats what I did and now i’m sitting with an expired BEC 😒 2021 is my year though!

Good luck! Contact your state board, try to get BEC extended.

I have 2 offers to consider. What makes more sense?
Full time role with 3 weeks vacation and benefits or contract opportunity with 20k more in potential salary.

Little background, I have been a loyal employee and have only worked at 1 firm for about 6 years now. Looking for more growth and obviously money.

Need some suggestions on what to consider and any pitfalls that I should be aware of.

Thanks
