Hello everyone.
I am currently studying for FAR and I feel completely lost. I am using CPAexcel (Wiley) to study and I understand some basic concepts on there and start to feel confident but then I study something else and feel like an utter failure. I took AUD in April because that’s when my CPA application expired and I honestly will be surprised if I pass but I’m hoping that by some miracle I passed. I planned to take FAR at the end of July but I was getting SO stressed with the amount of material I needed to cover that I was panicking, stressing and just hating life and myself because I feel so dumb. I have a masters in accounting and I feel like I don’t know how I accomplished that because I feel like I don’t even know the basics. So now I changed my study load and am thinking of taking FAR in October. As I’m studying I’m still finding it hard to grasp and apply what I’m learning. I understand what I read but when it comes to the questions I feel like there are other concepts included that I’m supposed to already know so I get the answer wrong. I have been looking at why my answers are wrong and take notes on how to get the correct answer. I am just starting to worry that I have so much material and I’m struggling to understand that I’m scared I wont remember it all once October rolls around. I’ve considered hiring a tutor but they are so expensive and I haven’t found many in my area. I want to give up but I feel like I shouldn’t because I haven’t even attempted to take the test so I can I give up before I even fail. Should I take my test sooner than October? I really don’t know what else I can do to help my brain understand accounting!
Any advice or positive feedback is welcome. I’m feeling really alone and defeated about this test and I just don’t know where else to turn for help. I can provide more insight to my situation I just felt like my post is so long already.
