Is anyone starting to study for the exams? I'm a week into studying for BEC. I'm looking to see if anyone wants to chat occasionally. I work remotely in tax (everyone pretty much already has theirs) and didn't make friends (covid) while I finished school and graduated. I got a late start to this career (early thirties married female, no kids) and literally have no one going through this. I'm just looking for support, I figure there might be someone else looking for it, too :)

Interested in becoming a Google cloud product manager. Here are my observations on the experience you will need to be considered.

Here are my observations about the skills and experiences that PMs have and how people are joining that group.

They are all technical. All of them could easily be very technical cloud consultants or cloud engineers.
Tl/Dr. If you couldn't get hired as a cloud engineer or cloud consultant - you probably can't become a PM

For the folks who work full time and studied - how did you do it? How was your study schedule? And how did you go about studying?

Is BEC doable in 2.5 weeks while working full time - 40 hours? I plan on dedicating 3 hours each weekday and 12 hours each weekend day. I most likely will also have a bit of time during working hours.

i failed for the fifth time on AUD. Somehow I went from a 67 to a 63. I am so pissed because now I have to retake BEC as well. Help! Any tips or words of wisdom appreciated.

So Becker was supposed to charge me $600 to update for unlimited access since my account was due to expire in March. I called them in December to make payment. Now 8months later...they reach out to me saying they only charged $35. I just checked my bank statement and they are right but i don't have $600 sitting around...What do i do? Thoughts?

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?

FAR, what a pain..that’s all

I have to pass FAR andBEC before 12/31. What’s the best way to do it?

Hi all, I’m confused with the NTS and test deadlines. I asked for my first NTS on 4/5/2021 and got it until 6/14/2021. Do I have 18 months to pass exams since April or June ? Thanks

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

Planning on retaking reg in three weeks. Got 62 and weaker on all the main section in Q4 2017. I didn’t do well on the time management and sims. Any suggestions? Is it enough time? Need motivation.

SCORES ARE UP!

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

Becker expired. What to do? Cant extend it since i dont have an nts and dont want to pay for one yet but need to study.

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!

Constantly wanting to leave work and go study for the CPA. I am distracted and bored while at work. It’s putting me in a meh mood. Ugh

Taking Reg this Friday so wish me luck

Prometric is closed until May 31 all across the country.

California peeps. I have a feeling I failed FAR, which is my last exam, but my score isn’t released until May 11. Can I submit the reapplication with the CA Board of Accountancy to speed up the retake and NTS process in case I failed? Or do I need to get my exam score first? I need to pass by mid June, else my REG score expires, hence the rush to resubmit the re-application.
