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 was promoted to manager in July 2020 (3,5 yr of experience). Currently preparing for YE but honestly, I couldn’t care less - what motivates one to push for SM promotion? Not my case atm, but wanted to hear what motivates ppl to keep going as I don’t feel like it’s worth it.

I started a company just under 1 year ago. We sell a product via ecom channels and have done ~100K in revenue with a 60% gross margin.

The first 6 months I was working a full time job. I quit my job to focus on the business full time, and have since depleted my readily available capital. I’m bootstrapping the business with my own funds. I was recently offered a job in my old industry for 80K per year. I was previously making 62K.

Should I take the job?

Thanks!
