So this is my first time really getting serious about the exam. Although, I did just take BEC with very little studying due to forgetting to reschedule with a new job and all...
I've failed BEC, REG and FAR a few times... started this journey in 2005 with all three of them and then took a few more in 2008. I've now taken a job that has mandated that I get my CPA in 15 months. It seemed like a good idea to have the deadline to force me to get it done, but just finding out that I'm pregnant with my fourth child has me thinking that this idea was a bit crazy.
Anyways, working with Ninja notes and using the study plan. I also have CPA Excel and am considering adding Rogers for the lectures. Anyone studied with exclusively CPA Excel without lectures and passed?
So far I've taken BEC in April 2013 and have AUD scheduled for May 2013 to try and get it out of the way before they update the material. Then FAR and finally REG.
Really glad to have found this forum as I'm hoping it will keep providing me the motivation necessary (beyond the whole agreement with my job thing) to keep the momentum going to finally pass this thing!
