Get at is now. Don’t wait. Work your hours and study after work until 8-9. Get some hours in on weekends. Set a schedule and stick to it. You got this

Another tip - go ahead and schedule a date for your exams. Once you have it scheduled you will be less likely to cancel/remove it. If you don't schedule a date its easy to keep pushing your studying schedule back

And also make sure you communicate these dates to your teams so that they’re aware and can support you as needed... it’s to their benefit for you to get this out of the way ASAP as well

Study as much as possible when you first start - you’ll probably be the slowest then and your workload will gradually build up. Set your dates and make a realistic study plan that you can share with your managers and seniors so they can try to help you manage both work and study. Schedule your harder exam first so that you have a bit more study time while you have a bit less to do during your first few weeks

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?
