    Took REG this morning and I don’t know if it was the BEC 74 score last week or the fact I’m so depressed with this whole processI can’t enjoy the holidays, but that exam killed me. I broke down last night because I knew I wasnt’t prepared. I’ve been studying A LOT, but the moment when you realize it won’t be enough. I feel so defeated. Beyond depressed. I am so blessed to have my boyfriend going through the CPA process too. He of all people understands. But with the holidays it is really hard with other people who just dont get it. But I know all of you understand. Thanks for reading. And good luck to all waiting on scores.

    Don't give up on us baby, don't make the wrong seem right

    The future isn't just for the night, it's written in the moonlight

    And painted on the stars, we can't change us…..

    Don't give up on us baby, we're still worth one more try

    I know we put the last one by, just for the rainy evening

    When maybe stars are few, don't give up on us I know

    We can still come through

    i remember when i failed reg and all the bad things happened that august, i had major break down. especially they didnt let me take audit cuz of my expired id either. I went back to only pass FAR. I felt awful and really thought abt giving up. I had so many fun things in life right now i wanna do. Thats why it was even more tempting. But then I thought I already had FAR under my belt, might as well just keep going and knock it down. I'm now only waiting for REG. Hopefully the result will b good tomorrow then I can finally move on and tell the world that im done.

    I know you will be fine. Gotta believe in yourself :)!

    You can't give up! You were one of the first people I talked to when I first started my CPA journey back when I took FAR. REG definitely makes candidates want to cry. I fumbled through the REG SIMS but somehow was still able to PASS. You can do this.

    I'll be getting back to BEC tomorrow as well. Got me dreaded 70 yesterday. My score report indicated I was weak on IT & Econ, I thought I had them covered. I was really looking forward to studying REG because this seems a bit more direct.

    My 2-week review went awful, hardly covered the MCQs and I was at the “I just don't give a ***t.” Good to know that others are going through the same thing and hanging in there. This adds more motivation & strength. Good luck everyone!

    In one area of the military, they drag you all into one room and sit you down. The instructor comes in and, on a wall-sized white board, draws a black dot with a marker. He then screams, “THIS BLACK DOT IS YOUR TIME HERE WITH ME, AND THE ENTIRE WALL IS YOUR LIFE. SURVIVE THE BLACK DOT, AND YOU HAVE THE REST OF YOUR LIFE AHEAD OF YOU.”

    That was about all the encouragement to be had, but put your suffering in perspective. This is a brief period in your life, and the amount of time you will spend preparing yourself to be a CPA is immaterial to the many years you have ahead.

    Good luck, and keep your head up. You gotta want it, and if you want it bad enough, you'll get it.

    Okay you have my permission to give up.

    But I'll tell you this having been there. It will gnaw at you…..it will hurt your confidence…..you will regret it. There is no such thing as giving up and forgetting it.

    I gave up and thought I could just move on. Nope, it gnaws at you.

    Nooo little number! Keep on keepin' on! I'm a big fan of yours!

    Come at this exam with a vengeance to get your life back.

    The thing that helped me get over the BEC hump is taking screen shots of all the questions I got wrong and writing in my own words of WHY. Sometimes I would write funny stuff to myself “FML” “COME ONNN you knew that” and it made my studying a lot more pleasurable and I remembered it the second time around.

    Keep at it. One day, it will all be worth it.
