Day 3

Well I talked with a CPA coach and he thought I should move out my testing date for FAR to July 15th...it sounded like a great idea except for there are no openings now in July at all...I am just going to try to work really hard to prepare for the July 5th date. I have run into a complication today as I cannot get the concept of converting cash to accrual to stick into my brain! This is a basic concept that my brain is refusing to remember!! Arrrrgg...I have studied around 4 hours tonight. I didn't get as far as I wanted since I am stuck with a brain that is refusing to cooperate. I am going to take the advice of a friend who has already passed FAR and write it down and look at it tomorrow. I will not let this beat me!!

Yesterday...

I studied for about 6 hours yesterday which is amazing since I also worked for 8! I hope that I can keep up this pace since my exam is on July 5th! I am determined! I got up early this morning to get in a little study time and will take my flash cards to the office for some intermitent study while I walk from place to place...FAR is such a huge amount of information! I ran into a bit of a road block last night since some of the MCQ were related to the conversion from accrual to cash...I have not done that since undergrad! I had to brush up on the concepts this morning...well off I go for day 3 of FAR prep...saying prayers that I can keep it up and be successful and pass FAR.
