I'm back.... 3 weeks ago

I haven’t been on in a while because I’ve been studying like crazy for FAR. But I was reading some of the posts and was concerned (as many of you were) about the new research function that the AICPA is implementing in SIMS beginning with the July exams. I just went on to the AICPA website and took a look at the sample exam there. I just want to ease everyone’s minds by letting you all know that it does appear that the research tab will be available for use on the Communications tab. I tried searching for the Communications topic on the research tab and did get some results. I think the main difference is that the “copy/paste” function will no longer be used. Instead, as you click on different pronouncements, a list of possible answers pops up and you select your answer from the list.

Boy, do I feel better after checking that!! :)

Since its been so long since I’ve been on here I also want to say CONGRATS to everyone who has passed!!! And to everyone else…Keep on pushing! We’ll get there too!!


vote for hillary clinton
Well.... 4 weeks ago

I voted for Hillary in the primaries, but sadly, it doesn’t look like I’ll be given the opportunity to do so again in November. I’m disappointed, but will do whatever necessary to make sure that the next president is not Republican.

I’ve just added another goal to my list—”Elect Barack Obama president.” I think he’ll make a great president…although I thought Hillary would have made an excellent one!

Hopefully you all will be joining me!

Where has my motivation gone??? 2 months ago

I thought that after passing two sections, I’d be even more motivated to study and get this thing passed by the end of this year….but instead it seems that I’ve lost almost all motivation!

I’ve only studied for about 3 hours today (I try to study for 6 to 8 on weekends.) And the worst part is that I’m not even really enjoying the time that I’m not studying because the thought that keeps running through my head is: “I really should be studying right now.”

FAR is just so overwhelming!

Well, that’s my gripe for today…now to force myself to keep studying!!!

Good luck to everyone else!
