No. I studied ~ 4 hours a day and ~ 6 on weekends

Let us know if you were able to pass in 2 weeks

Yes

Def. Just put in the time. Start running through the questions and you will get a good feel on where you stand.

I studied full time for 4 days & got an 82. Not bragging - it's literally our job. Really nail down the attestation concepts, idk about you but I had no experience so just make sure you know that & what's in the audit engagement letter

Thank you so much!!! I'm finally done!! 😭😭
