...failed both BEC and FAR this window. This means I lost my AUD credit and I lose REG in Oct. Those are the only two I passed the first time. I have used Becker, Wiley/Yeager, CPAExcel, Gleim, and Lambers now. I have taken and failed BEC 6 times now and FAR 4 times. I've reached the end of the rope at least for now. The next couple of months I will focus on taking the CFE exam and then the CGAP. Maybe next year I'll pick up the CPA exam again. I have learned some good stuff from the review courses that I can use in my job, just can't seem to pass this test. Good luck to the rest of you still taking the test and congrats to those who passed.

I'm not sure if you remember me.....last year we were in the same BEC study group in Club 75. I'm so sorry to hear the sad news. I am glad to hear that you are still planning to come back to conquer this beast.Good Luck on the CFE!!! I also thought of the CFE but I lack auditing/forensic acctg experience; it's almost impossible for me to get the credential. I will be pursing the CMA either this fall or next spring, so I will be lurking around this forum for another year or two :-). I had to look up CGAP..... that's awesome! Good Luck on both exams and keep us posted!

I love to solve problems but unfortunately we currently reside in a very rural area and I had hoped a CPA designation would do several things - one if we move it's portable, and two, you have to be a CPA to get certified as a CFF (forensic financial work). Luckily the job I have is mostly audit work - school districts, towns, govt entities, etc. I do very little pure accounting so a CPA is not required, but would be helpful to have another CPA at the firm I work at.
Good luck with the CMA - that's one I have no intention of pursuing given my issues with BEC, lol. Keep in touch.
