FAR- Starting Over from scratch

So I went through FAR 1 to 4 but then I lost it. I couldn't listen to the lecture anymore. So I just gave up and I didn't study for a week and half at all!!!! Just left the lecture on so it can run and I can get credit for doing the lecture and homework for Becker Promise. What an idiot I am!!! I got scared from looking at the simulus problem and all the journal entries.

Well today I had a dentest appointment and I was sitting there getting my teeth cleaned when the nurse told me she has been working there for 8 years. And I started thinking "wow how nice it must be to work at a job she likes there is no one to boss her around and she loves it so much and its close to her home....maybe I should be a dental assistant I'll clean peoples teeth out". Then it hit me. Its not too late to go back and start over again. Here I was sitting there jobless, no one wants to hire me. I am 26 and this is the time to make it or break it. I am going to do this stupid FAR I don't care if I fail because I am not a person who is scared to fail. Even if I do fail I can take the dam thing again. Happy Studying!!! I am creating a whole new schedule for myself. No more slacking off and just spending time on facebook. I need this!!!! for myself and my kids in the future!!!! I can do it!!!!! If my stupid cousins can be nurses who don't speak any english I can be a CPA!!! I know I did good on BEC and I am going to do good on rest of these as well.

BEC Exam Day

So I took the exam two weeks ago and it wasn't that bad. Although I think I should have managed my time more wisely. Most of the questions were on chapter 3 and 5. I didn't know much on variance and ended up guessing some of the questions. But still I don't feel that bad I think I will pass. But we will see. One thing I hate that I waited too long to take the test. I should have not moved it two weeks ahead. Because my FAR class had started and I fell behind in FAR by one week.

Week 3 of BEC

So Chapter 4 on IT was actually easy!!! I got the grip of it the first time just a few terms I didn't know here and there but rest was fine. As for chapter 5 was hell, although I did really good on cost accountin in college I didn't have to remember all the formulas. I feel like the chapter 5 is not organized that well. I am still doing bad on the homework but oh well. Now from next two weeks I am going to review the chapters and study my own. Time for a good movie and a sandwitch right now. My brain is freezing from all the studying. Oh and by the way flashcards did not help me at all!!! what a waste of time.

Week 2 of Becker BEC

So far in week two I reviewed chapter 2, but I feel like I am cheating on the homework because I keep writing the answers down and on the second turn to do the questions I have the questions right there. I feel like I know the material but the homework questions' terminology is confusing me. One section had 81 questions!! crazy. I think tomorrow I will go back review this chapter from the beginning again and start chapter 3. I need to start remembering the formulas and terms but can't seem to find the time even though I am not even working yet. And I just applied for a job today now I am confused to even if I should take on a job because if BEC the "easy" section is so hard wata hell am I going to do on FAR. I dont want to waste the money I put into this. I hope I can do this. Will post more at the end of the week.

1st week of BEC

I didn't learn much except on how to navigate the online course. The class covered the basic information on different types of corporations. I hope I con't fall in cracks I already spent so much money on this darn thing.

This is my first section and so far I am just confused on if I should buy the final review and the flashcards there is nothing else major on my mind right now. Just want to pass these stupid exams so I can get a real professional job and start my career as a CPA rather then some Accounting Clerk who pays the bills all day long.
