    According to Google Maps, it takes 979 hours to walk the 2,976 miles from Boston to California. Assuming 7 hours a night of sleep and 1 hour of downtime, that would require at least 61 days. I'm not familiar with all the non-NASBA states, but hopefully your wait isn't that long. 🙂

    Anyway, I imagine it only takes the AICPA about 5 seconds to grade my exam.

    But as for the time it takes for the AICPA to get around to grading my exam and giving me my score, I could have spent 31 painstaking days waiting anxiously to receive my score…

    But that would just be crazy.

    AUD: 88
    BEC: 79
    REG: 81
    FAR: 72 » 74 » 88

    Study method: 100% watching videos, including solving problems covered therein; no books, paper, or pencils

    I wish I could say it was a busy month; instead it was more like 2 weeks of accounting-free procrastination followed by 1 week of hellish cramming. FAR similarly was many months of accounting-free procrastination followed by 2 weeks of hellish cramming. The timeline itself isn't so bad since I don't have any other major priorities; if only I hadn't sabotaged my time with so much procrastination. Hopefully I learn my lesson and start studying for REG immediately after typing this comment. (Well, I have one YouTube video open. After that, for sure…)

    Anyway, I'm actually just relying on whatever free material I can find on the Internet (there's a lot). The only material I've actually purchased were the NINJA flashcards when they were on sale for $1 for Independence Day weekend, but I actually ended up not even having time to go through them before taking BEC. Hopefully I get around to using them before REG because I'd hate to let that $1 go to waste…

    I am right there with you, I have been studying for FAR since January with plenty of non-accounting time in the middle. I have my exam in a week and I am cramming like no other. I am using CPAexcel with Wiley TB and I hope that I really can make it through this with out a retake. Goodluck to you, I'll keeping an eye on your scores lol
