Background: The first time I sat for this exam I tried to do everything right. I started studying full time right after graduation and devoted my time completely to the cause. Unfortunately, life had a different route for me. 2 deaths in the family, power outages at Prometric (twice), and an unexpected pregnancy all while dealing with my abusive spouse. I started with Gleim, then went to Becker, and then I quit.
Fast forward 6 years and I am now a single parent, I divorced my abusive ex, and I am living in poverty for the first time in my life and I do not have a lot of emotional support. Again I am putting all my eggs in one basket, but the stress is getting to me. I fainted on the day of my exam and did not make it to the testing center.
I finally passed REG so my clock has begun. I am so disappointed that this happened. I have been studying BEC for 2 months, and although I didn't feel good about the exam, I felt that I would get at least a 75. Now the window is closed, and I feel that I need to switch gears and study Auditing so that I can pass it before the changes happen, and then go back to BEC.
I am trying so hard to keep everything together, but at this point I am feeling a little defeated.
