I have been half assing far and my exam is sep 14. I did get through f5 before testing centers closed and started going through govt but I don’t feel confident I have enough time to get through everything while working full time and I can only get about a week off later this month. Advise please

Is your NTS expiring?

I don’t but I have found the AICPA guidelines to be helpful.

When you begin the review go by section and focus on the weak areas first! Weak areas first! Also, do take the AICPA practice exam that’s available online. Take any PTO that you can to study for it. This is def doable if you buckle down.

How’d it go?

Opinions wanted: I inherited an excel file around 2k rows and 50 columns used to manage stakeholder communications. Mostly free text fields and it feels very chaotic. It will be easy to miss an update/ hard to get a summary of changes without reading most of the columns. Would it be worth converting to an Access Db just for my use? Willing to put in the time to figure it out, but not sure if it will be more/less difficult to manage over time
