How to feel better after failing?

    Ok, so some of us will find out they passed and some will find out they failed, on Dec 9.

    Let’s think of creative ways to fail happily. If I fail, I’ll buy an iPhone 6s for myself, which I would love to.

    If I pass, no iPhone 6s for me.

    So, either way, it’s a win-win.

    Considering you are in the 90s on all 3 of your last tests, it looks like you will be saving your $800 this Christmas haha.

    BEC - 88

    KO the test in 5 months even though I am a dummy!

    When I failed Reg I cried it out then moved on with a positive attitude. The worst is telling people, but everyone was extremely supportive.

    REG -73 (8/2015) 81 (10/2015)
    AUD - 73 (11/2015) 84 (1/2016)

    I don't know personally what it's like, though my plan tonight is to wake up at about 2 am to check my REG score. If I pass, I'm going back to sleep. If I fail, I'm going to start by getting blackout drunk.

    AUD - 91

    Won't check my score until right before lunch tomorrow. I've done it that way for the previous 3 score releases and it's worked for me.

    I do know that the first two times I found out I failed AUD I just laid in bed with my heart pounding. The third time I didn't check the score at night so that I would sleep better…. I didn't I tossed and turned anyway. Finding out you failed is just so painful.

    Its so interesting to see peoples struggle with different test. For example i found AUD to be a breeze and REG to be painfully difficult, but you struggle with AUD and REG seemed to be a joke for you.

    FAR-76 First attempt.
    AUD-79 First attempt.
    REG-79 First attempt.
    BEC-79 First attempt.

    Done!

    I agree mitchmatch. But I work in Tax, so I was exposed to it and the material made sense to me. I have never done anything in audit with the exception of counting cars in a dealership on January 2nd. So for me audit is all book knowledge no experience.

    I usually wait until i get into the office to look at my score so if I fail I will have to refrain from making a scene.

    If I fail AUD again I think I'll just drink with “Three Little Birds” playing on a loop for a few hours.

    REG - 73, 69 ugh
    AUD - 11/21/2015
    BEC - Jan 2015
    FAR - April 2015

    I can't believe I've done so many of these score releases. I'm praying tonight is my last one. The last two times my heart beat so hard I thought it was going to explode. I absolutely dread failing tonight. Praying for all of you. Seems there are a lot of people that are looking for their last score like me.

    The best case scenario is that I get to kick my feet up a little bit before tax season. The worst case scenario is tax season effectively begins tomorrow as I crack the books back open. Hate to think like this.
