@23 That is awesome that you are back in accounting and are starting to take the exams again. Keep with it. 73 this time is an 80 next time. You got this!!!

@CH89 I took the exams 24 times over a 7 year period!!!!! I had two children along the way and bought a house. Later this month will mark my 2nd year as a partner in my firm and I am under 40. My life has changed dramatically since I passed my exams and moved on to part owner. I could have quit at any time and just paid for an MBA and tried to figure it out from there. The special thing about CPAs is that there are not many of us. There are more and more accountants but less and less are moving on to being CPAs. We need more. We are not going anywhere. The world of business is changing dramatically, and many of the world's organizations are looking at CPA to help. Jump on the wave and ride it with us, pass the other exams and help us shape the future!

From when I mailed my check in to when I received my CPA license number it was about 3 months!! I had turned mine in at the end of the year 2016 didn't get it until March 21, 2017.

@Jjjgolf500 – I can check my old material to see if I have any of my old study sheets. I may have thrown them all away.

@74phoenix – The biggest motivation I had was each time I had a review my firm would give me a paper with two numbers on it. One showing my salary as a CPA and the other a Non CPA. Over the years as I became more valuable in the audit and consulting practice the gap between the two numbers got larger and larger.

@AFrame – So glad I can help. I know the feeling of taking exams over and over. You are super close, you can do it.

@Recked and @Tncincy – The transition to Partner was a percentage buy-in. Made a down payment and making payments now per month.
