Wow, I remember another blogger saying how she was actually excited to get her NTS.. and now that I finally have mine (first applied on 2/27), I feel the exact same way.  That's definitely a load of stress off my back.  I have 2 sections on this NTS (AUD and FAR) and will get BEC and REG a bit later on.  Just didn't want to schedule all 4 exams in one NTS and…

Hello everyone.

Well, I'm studying for the Auditing section (in the Internal control section right now with all the different types of cycles)  I only have 1 section bought so far, which is the Auditing Section from RogerCPA.  I know it might be a bit more expensive in the long run, but I really wasn't sure what course to buy, so I settled with a section for Roger and I'll see how it goes.  My question is.. does anyone use any (maybe relatively cheap) supplementary material to study?…

Hey guys.

Almost 10 days into studying for my first section (AUD) and I just thought about something.  I really have no idea which order i'll be taking these sections haha.  I decided to take Auditing first because of the changes that will happen to the section after June.  I figure I can get that over with before the changes take place and any new material gets tested.  I still actually have no idea when i'm going to actually take the exam because I'm waiting for my NTS, but my…

Hey everyone.

Well, I've started studying for the first section i'm going to take (Auditing) and it's been a week now.  Still haven't received my NTS, so hopefully that goes through without any hitches because i'm dying to schedule this exam so I can properly assess how much time I have left and what I should focus on the most.  First week mostly went without any hitches.  I really need to zero in and focus a lot more on the material in hand.  It's very easy to get distracted…

This is Christine's CPA Exam Journey...

I have taken AUD this February, and now preparing for REG which I am going to schedule in May, and BEC probably in July before my software expires. Studying CPA is fun, but balancing the life between CPA and my graduate courses is a challenge. What's more, I have to return my…

Hello CPA Exam Club Buddies!!

I hope that studying is going well for all of you! It has been a week since my AUD exam, and even though everyone tells me not to do this (including myself), it has been extremely difficult not to obsess over two things: the experience itself; and my resulting fate (success or failure).…

Got my AUD score report today- 87!  Extremely pumped, and twice as excited because I thought I was gonna find out tomorrow, so it was an awesome surprise!  Crazy nervous opening that pdf in the email though D:  Now I'm on to my second section, BEC, which I'm hoping I'll be ready for by the beginning of April because I want to fit in REG at the end of May so I have my summer before I start work to chip away at the behemoth that is FAR!

Anyone have info/tips for me on what to expect…

Hello CPA Exam Club Buddies!

I hope that you are all doing well and that your studying is going GREAT! :) I am just finishing another evening of studying, and I can't believe that I only have one more day before I am sitting for the AUD Exam! Yikes!

I am working on very little sleep, but I feel pretty good about my studying.

I have been listening to Roger CPA Lectures on my weak areas on my 30 min drive to and from work and completed all the homework twice, including TBS.

Something new this time is I wrote my own notes from the REG text book that goes with Roger lecture. I am going to spend time before and after work to work in the software and I will have all day Thursday (until test time) to work the software as well.…

The first wave of scores for the Jan/Feb 2013 testing window have slowly but surely rolled out.  If you are in a non-NASBA state you'll need to be even more patient and wait a little longer.  Regardless of your wait, I hope everyone received/receives awesome…
