    Ok I just got another 73. I don’t have any emotion for it what so ever. I haven’t cried, gotten angry, or anything. Has anyone else felt like this? One thing I have done is I haven’t stopped eating. I can’t wait till I got to weight watchers tomorrow to see how much I’m gain this week, mainly in the last few days.

    Started sitting in May 2002, on and off. But since 2008 I've been nonstop and my scores are....
    AUD - 39, 48, 56, 65, 68, 73, 76!!! (Finally passed in Oct 2011!!!) Becker, NINJA, & Wiley
    REG - 75 (Lost Credit) 72, 68, 73, 75 (Passed again in Aug 2011) Becker, NINJA, & Wiley
    FAR - 65, 68, 75 (Lost Credit) 68, 73, 73, 80 (Passed again in May 2012) Roger, NINJA, & Wiley
    BEC - 65, 68, 71, 72, 72, 71, 76 (Lost Credit)- 70, 76!!!! I AM DONE!!! - Roger, NINJA, & Wiley
    After 10 long years of studying, I AM DONE!!!! Finally a Licensed CPA in the State of New York!!

    I'm so sorry Jomarie. I was really hoping you would get a favorable outcome. I expected to feel really glad about passing and it's like I'm dead inside. I don't know if it's because this exam just beats the living daylights out of us or it teaches us perseverance and calmness (I know that's not a word but I couldn't think of another one). Maybe it's because you know that it really is just a matter of time before you get it done. I do feel like those who pass and those who don't can chalk a great deal of it up to luck.

    AUD - 88
    FAR - 90
    REG - 85
    BEC - 88

    I think it's cause I've seen so many 72s, 73s, and 74s that I don't show any emotion anymore. I've wasted to many tears on this exam. I don't think I have anymore tears for failing results. I'm just going to have tears for passing results!!

    Ugh, I know how you feel. Just got another 73 on FAR. This test just wears you down and exhausts you. I can't imagine how good it will feel to finally pass.

    We're going to pass it this time!!

    I think you've built up a self defense mechanism, with all you've got going on between kids, studying, etc your body has switched to autopilot and that includes emotionally!

    FAR- 77
    AUD -49, 71, 84
    REG -56,75!

    @mla – you may be right. I've been running on autopilot for awhile now. I don't think about it I just do it!! I think I need to sit down with the hubby this weekend and write out a study plan together. He'll love doing that with me….LMAO!!!!

    @jomarie, I'm so sorry about FAR. It's just not fair! You should have gotten a passing score.

    I agree with mla, I think you're on autopilot at the moment. This whole process is so emotionally draining in and of itself, that, when combined with family responsibilities/issues, it almost sucks the fight out of a person. Take some time to relax for a few days and get back to yourself, then attack full force. I'm sure you realize there is a support circle here that'll see you through every step of the way.

    FAR 88 (07/15/11)
    BEC 83 (08/31/11)
    AUD 81 (10/15/11)
    REG 83 (11/26/11)

    @JoMarie,

    I agree with mla1169 and Kasia….autopilot. Remember all the posts from people who passed and they said that they were inexplicably tired? It was like the “autopilot” got turned off and they were catching up.

    I don't think there is anything wrong with you at all. I think it also says something about your resolve and tenacity. Keep it going 🙂

    I have every faith that you will cross that finish line! Take time to gather yourself and make your plan. I will see you on the Power thread. Strength in numbers baby!!!

    Take care!

    @ yankee – Your right. I've been thinking about what was I doing when I passed Audit that I'm not doing now. I need to go back to that. I'm planning on making another study space in the family room since my study space in the living room was taken away by the X-mas tree.

    @JoMarie,

    That is a great idea. I think I will steal that. I didn't really carve out my space like I did when I passed BEC and FAR. So, back to basics for me. Get the study area ready. I already have to bag stocked, I just have to get my study area set. I also read something on another thread from Kasia. She said when she studied, she gave it her full attention. I need to incorporate more of that. Quality time is key, I think I could use some improvement on that.

    We are going to finish this next window!!!!!
