All I care about right now is passing BEC before it goes away and making this stuff even more difficult

Couldn't agree more! We can do it!

I’m a CPA and been through this. You always want to stay positive that you are going to pass… that’s what I did on my 8 attempts with the cpa exams…

Thanks for your honesty! Made me laugh as well!

Non-Accounting major, passed everything on my first try.

I guess I will use it as motivation! Please give us some tips!

You are supposed to think this..its called studying for a reason

In theory... I don't think people study for failing...

Claim it. Don't entertain negative thoughts. Always think of positive thoughts because how you think affects everything around you.

Got it! Will do that!

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?

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.
