    Nothing negative is going to happen by asking. Just ask, they will either say yes or no. I've never asked for an earlier start date, but almost always ask for a later start date. I've never had an employer not accommodate a later start date, including Big4.

    AUD - 83
    BEC - 77
    REG - 70, 78

    Now what the hell do I do?

    If you haven't passed the exam, don't start earlier.

    Source: big 4 audior who started earlier

    Bec-76 (7/14)
    Aud-81 (8/14)
    Reg-82 (7/15)
    Far- 82 (10/15)

    Moral of the story, don't do your CPA while working in Big 4 Public Accounting.

    I'd change it to as late as possible. Last chance before working for the next 30+ yrs.
