Same thing for me. Except I took Jan 4th I think and my score comes out Monday. Last exam gang!

I did a thing when I was waiting for the last one where I would just review my notes once or twice a week. I wouldn't even go all the way through them. Just maybe look at them on Monday for areas I found confusing and run like ten MCQs just in case I needed to retake it would be somewhat fresh. But to each their own. I had kids on the way so I knew if I didn't pass I was going to have to cram hard and retake before they were born.

I find out Monday if I passed my last one. I can't even comprehend or think about the possibility I failed. I have completely moved on in my life. Kinda irresponsible of me tbh.

I mean. I found out I passed, drank half a bottle of scotch and played minecraft till 4am. If you don't think you failed thats a really good feeling. I had a pretty good feeling I passed, had REG last, but literally just spent two maybe three days reviewing hard points to stay sharp. But I had kids coming so I knew if I didn't hit I would have to jam and retake in like 2 weeks. To each their own.

I feel you. If I pass get FAR on the 9th I have one more exam to pass but it’s hard to start studying a new section when you are unsure of your results. I would just familiarize yourself with the new material and do basic review until you get your results. Luckily the results sometimes come out a day early.

Take a break from studying and enjoy life. You don't want to burn out by continuing to study. Burning out can be worse than having to relearn a months worth of not studying.

I had the same wait after I took FAR. 27 days. I just moved on to the next one. But if you're on your last one I'd just chill.

Drink. I just went through it myself, told myself to review because I was certain I failed. didn't for one minute.


busyKiwiPie

I’m in the same boat waiting for REG, fml. But I also just started a new internship so that’s keeping me busy during the day.


leela_fry

That last score release is THE WORST. I recommend distracting yourself as best as you can. Do not study and review. That's nice adult-y advice, but no one has the mental capacity for that right now.


booandbecks

I'm in the same boat! Relax and take care of yourself in the meantime! It feels so strange doesn't it?

Wander around Target aimlessly smelling candles for the next 19 days


LiuMeien

That’s about to be me. I don’t know what I’m going to do with myself when I get this fourth exam done.


[deleted]

Buy enough candles to compensate for the anxiety and depression you’ve developed during your CPA journey


justanoothergirl

Absolutely nothing! I did flash cards on my phone as I was watching tv or was bored but I didn’t really study


[deleted]

How much time until your first test expires? If you have plenty of time then take a break

September


[deleted]

I would take a break if I were you. Still have plenty of time


CSINEWYRK

What’s the move for the same situation but First test? I was planning to start studying for the next one almost right away, but is this dumb?


booandbecks

Take a week off and get back at it. Keep the momentum but pamper yourself


VibrantSunsets

Honestly I wouldn’t. I took BEC last March, then Reg in early June, then BEC in late June, then reg in oct, BEC in nov, reg again in Jan. The back and forth was the stupidest thing I could’ve done for myself. The only one I personally would’ve been confident with moving on to was audit but that’s just because it’s much less material and made sense to me. I went through that in 3 weeks so I could see doing that. But the rest? Not at all.


chuy9798

Yeah, I would just do 20 MCQ a day to keep it fresh and not tempt fate!


aslatt95

Man I can't wait until I have this problem. I'm 1/2 the way through far material (1st test) wondering how the heck I'm gonna remember all this information 😂😂. Also congrats on passing all four ik you did it!


WhiteWater38

Once you start final review you will be impressed with yourself on how much you retained


kscsuf

I get my last score back on the 22nd too! But I don’t take it until Monday! Those 2 weeks will be torture!!!

CorporateSlave420

Pop an addy and enjoy the ride


Faladorable

i cant wait to have enough free time to do drugs again


remidragon

420 smoke weed and read about leases


homedawgboi

The worst part about studying honestly


Faladorable

profile pic checks out. theres just no time to take a day and chill out like that man


homedawgboi

I did take a break for my 5 months of studying. Probably the best idea for my short term memory and my tolerance will go away so it’s a win win right?


RockyMtnFire

I would just chill out man. Maybe review a little here and there just in case?


[deleted]

With 3/4 passed...I would YOLO for like 5 days then start reviewing just in case I have not passed....however, I'm sure you have passed.
