    Since getting a negative Regs score back, I figure it makes sense to feel like crap for awhile…

    How long? Any recommendations on how to get over it?

    Yesterday!

    Future CPAs don't have time to sulk on sunk costs. I got back to BEC right after I got my score. It sucks to re-study, studied hard so that I wouldn't see it another time. However, things didn't workout. Told myself that I'll only stop studying once all sections are completed.

    Spoke to my co-worker who passed all four after a total of seven tries, she said “No one said this was gonna be easy.” Now is the time to get into beast mode.

    Around here, the Pity Party lasts exactly 8 hours. Any longer than that is counterproductive. Sorry about your score! 🙁

    I found out I failed FAR last Friday and it still bothers me somewhat, but I am mostly over it. If it weren't for my boyfriend I would probably still be crying. lol 🙂 My advice, only tell a select few that you are taking the exams. I've kept it a secret from most people. I agree with what others are saying, don't dwell on it. They are hard but we can all pass. Just pick yourself back up and start studying again. Good luck!

    24 hours max. Anything longer just takes away from study time and prolongs the misery.

    R - 74;88
    A - 84
    B - 74;89
    F - no study = 67; May 15 = 87 & done

    Time is too precious to be sulking. You got 18 months to complete all 4!! I actually had an interview the same day I found out I failed AUD. I was hoping to share the good news with the interviewer, but instead I had to focus hard to keep a happy face on. Good luck!!

    Found out I passed FAR the same day as one of my Big4 interviews, I made sure to have every interviewer I sat with update my resume >=)
