    I am so upset at my self!!! I signed up for Jan 28th instead of Feb 28 and all this time I thought its Feb 28th. I was just getting ready to print my NTS and prometrics receipt when I noticed the date!!! I just froze!! Turns out I lost this testing window and I have to reapply for a new NTS.

    I am signed up for Bec on April 7th..(double checked and yes it is April 7th) What should I do? Continue to prep for Reg and take it beginning of April or take it at the end now.. after all my exams..

    Any suggestions? Also as for my NTS for all the other exams, do you think they r still valid?

    I would suggest moving BEC to the end of May. I don't think there is a cost to move it since you are more than 20 days out. Keep studying REG for the next month and take it on April 1st. You could knock out both in the next testing window. If you are pretty confident on REG you could start studying for BEC and take both in the beginning of April, but if you needed more time to study REG then I would just take that first. Definitely don't save it until the end or you will basically have to start over with your studying.

    That is my fear that I'll forget most of the material if I wait till end.. however, I don't think I can take both BEC n Reg in April. I was planning to take BEC april 7th and AUD on may 29th.

    ayafzal78 Give yourself another month to pass your first exam. If you start to feel real confident about REG in the next couple of weeks look over the chapter(s) in BEC that covers the different type of business formations. It should support REG a little bit without causing your brain to explode with new information.

    You might try BEC(April 25 th) and AUD(May 31st). Maybe BEC sooner if you can cover more BEC material in the next month while managing to retain REG.

    I spoke to an ancient wise man who sent me on a mushroom induced journey through an ancient forest to find the key to passing the CPA exam. A talking spider monkey told me to throw the last of my drinking water in the dirt to find what I was looking for. So I followed his instructions and the following message appeared in the soil:

    "Do 5000 multiple choice questions for each section"

    Shoot! I'm so sorry to hear that! First, forgive yourself– with all this studying, I found myself spacing out on some things, too. Then decide on a plan. Great suggestions from the others above.

    It will be okay. Things will just take slightly longer now.

    (am I the only one who went and double-checked their registrations for the date?)

    AUD 84 (1/9/14-Wiley books/TB + free materials)
    FAR 83 (5/21/14-the above + NINJA 10 Pt Combo Lite)
    REG 84 (7/9/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC/Notes)
    BEC 76 (10/5/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC)

    At least you won't lose out on a credit or have passed anything yet, now will be more prepared to ace the first go around 🙂

    When I read this post last night, immediately I double-checked the email confirmation I received after scheduling my test online, then printed it right away.

    This morning when I woke up, I received a reminder email from Prometric pertaining to my upcoming test on 2/28.

    Did you not get anything like that before Jan 28th?
