My CPA Exam Story – do you have a story to tell?
I am starting a new series within this site called My CPA Exam Story. People who read this site know what I went through…the ups and downs of the CPA Exam and trying to balance work and family life and trying to maintain some semblance of adequate mental health.
I know that there are people out there who are either where I was a year ago (2 exams passed and on the verge of losing one of them and struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel), or are where I am right now having passed the exam and with hindsight being 20/20, have a perspective or experience that others could benefit from.
So ~ I’ll extend the invitation to anyone wanting to share their story. Write it up via Word Document (or just e-mail it)…submit a picture (if you want…if not, that’s ok too…pictures help to visualize the person…) and I’ll proof-read it and post it as a regular post on the blog.
Do you have a CPA Exam story to tell that would benefit others? Did you breeze through it and have some tips? Did you struggle (or are struggling), but made progress? Are you finished with the exam and want to tell others that it’s worth it? Or – are you a spouse who stood by your loved one throughout the process and want to give hope to other spouses who are sacrificing just as much as the one taking the exam?
It doesn’t matter if you’ve finished the exam, or are still neck-deep in it, whatever your story is, e-mail it to me at another71cpa@gmail.com
Depending on how many submissions I get, I’ll post them once or twice a week.
As always thanks for reading.
Have a CPA Exam Success Story to Share?
If you have successfully passed a section of the CPA Exam or have passed all 4 sections and want to share how you did it, please post it in the comments section of this post. This blog is about persevering through the stress and failures that come with the CPA Exam.
Remember – only 15% of the people who take the CPA Exam pass the first time and in a given section, less than half of the people who take that section will pass.
If you have an encouraging story to share, the rest of us would appreciate reading it!
You can remain as anonymous as you want to be.
Guidelines:
1. This is only for posts relating to passing the exam or sections of the exam. Please don’t follow up people’s entries with questions. It creates clutter and I will have to delete them.
2. When sharing your success story, if you used a particular review package that worked, feel free to share that. If you used one that was terrible and you hated it, please refrain from sharing that. I don’t want to be contacted by anyone’s general council because I’m letting people disparage their client’s product on my site.
People need to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, so please tell your success story.
