How do you balance working and studying? Haven’t figured out a good method yet and looking for advice.

How does a sole engineer at a company go about getting management to actually care how production machines run? I’m the only mechanical engineer at my company dealing with a half dozen cranky production managers who think that I can “work my magic” on a machine. It’s not magic, just ignorance about the machine actually works. How to I get a manager to stop caring about the end product long enough for me to actually teach them about their own machine?

I work in a firm that is known for litigation defense. I’ve been developing my own plaintiffs practice as well. I am able to pay the bills with my hourly defense work, which gives me time to focus on a handful of high value PI case a year on contingency. I was recently negotiating a case and was told part of the reason the claims rep/OC was jerking me around was because they didn’t see me as a plaintiffs attorney. Is there any way to change this perception or does it just come over time?

Hey people

I have recently received an offer letter from PwC and have signed and accepted the offer (via Workday portal).
Now when I check the tasks against the job on workday, I can see no tasks pending and under completed tasks: a green tick against 'review and sign offer letter (step complete)' (and I can see the offer)
I am told that I would receive onboarding emails from HR, but I haven't yet.
My DoJ is in the fourth week of July. When do we generally expect these communications?

Winstead or Jackson Walker people in Dallas (or if you know someone in these office) — how often do you work weekends and what time do you generally “log off” for the day? Also curious as to average annualized hours. Thank you so much!

What's a good way to find a mentor in this industry?

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management. They both have the same requirements (generally speaking) including a capstone course that serves as a field immersion course with the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

Any BCG Platinion Cyber folks here?

Hi,

KPMG has mentioned in offer that they shall provide reimbursement for purchase of home computer for 1L once every 3 years

Is this right???

Burrow vs Chiefs or Fields vs Packers?

Hoping to get my PHR in the next year or so. Outside of employer reimbursement, are there other opportunities for this to get funded? I know SHRM Foundation offers scholarships for the CP, but I am looking for PHR specific help. Thank you! :)

Rishi Sunak has won two rounds of Tories voting. Is there any chance we may still get tax cuts(in other words, he loses the vote)?

To the class of 2020 🐠, how’re you spending the coming months before school??

In honor of the upcoming score release this week, what exam are you waiting on and how many do you have left?

SCORES ARE UP!

If we leave public accounting before passing the cpa exam, how do we go about verifying all our work experience/hours once we’ve moved into industry? Still want to get cpa, but moving into industry

If you guys know any accounting students graduating from December 2019 - August 2021 looking for winter 2020 internships at the NY Office, send me a pm and I can get you connected to a recruiter!

Aside from variances, what other topics did you get for Sims in BEC ? Currently reviewing SIMs with Becker but there’s not a lot of them.

Taking Reg this Friday so wish me luck

I’ve taken FAR a few times at this point. I got two 74s and this past one I got a 70. I felt like the last exam (which was a few weeks ago) was extremely harder than the other ones. Has anyone else noticed the exam getting extremely tough? Or do you think I just got a one off?

Scheduled to retake AUD in 4 weeks and take REG 4 weeks after. Ready to finish this beast!

Hi all! In which order do you recommend studying BEC chapters ? Which ones are heavily tested compared to others ? (For example in AUD A3-A4 were tested for sims and I’ve studied A1-A5-A6)

I took FAR in Aug and AUD last week. Didn’t pass FAR and feeling like I may have passed AUD. My original NTS for them runs out on dec 18. If I get a new NTS for one of them to take before busy season do I have to wait to take it until after my original NTS runs out?

how in the world are people passing REG?? i just got to R4 and i feel like i legitimately know nothing like I’m doing quite horribly on all MCQs so far

How much are you expecting in raise/promotion or exit opps for having the CPA title and credentials?

Question - my 18month clock stops Oct end. I have one exam left. If I test this month end for my last exam, but the results come in Nov (and hopefully I pass) will that still expire the credit for my first exam? Or I should be good?

Taking BEC in 3 weeks. What are some heavily tested areas to focus on? How serious should cost be taken? The Becker questions for cost are time consuming.

Studying for FAR and it gives me so much anxiety. There’s just so much information. I’m taking notes and reading. I don’t plan on listening to the lectures but I feel like I’m moving so slow. Advice?

I only have Reg left. I failed it once before. For those who have passed Reg what were some of things you focused on? Also if you have any study tips I would really appreciate it, tax has never come naturally to me.

Anyone take far recently? Took today and have no clue how it went tbh. Sims were pretty toils - felt like I blindly went through them

I’m so happy to say that after about 5 years of being here, I’m finally done with the exam!!! In a world full of internet trolls, it was so refreshing to be on this thread while we all cheered for each other and pushed each other to climb over our failures and discouragements. Thank you for all who have posted helpful comments, asked poignant questions and left their encouragement! If I can pass, you will pass! Best of luck everyone!

Anyone else waiting on BEC results?

Anyone here taken the LSAT and the CPA? Which one is harder?
