However, some results, about half of those that are taken in the first half of the exam quarter, are released within 24 days of the second month of the quarter! You are a lawyer, I know you got that! Thanks for the encouragement; I hope I passed too. But it will be a miracle if I did! I am now just focusing on Regulation (Federal Taxation for the most part).

I hope you passed. When will you know? Let me know when you know. I love the feeling of something being over and out of my hands. I don't know much about this particular exam, but I know that it's not necessarily the people who think they knocked it out of the park that do well. Sounds tough. I hope you passed.

I didn't finish, and it was tough all the way. I am a little flustered. I have already passed FAR (Financial Accounting and Reporting) and BEC (Business Economics and Concepts). Next up, REG (Regulation --- tax stuff). Yeah, being certified will set me up for promotion. Anyway, I will come back when I cool off ;-) he he!

I have been trying to figure out how to prepare for my next job/position that will come either from quitting the current one or being promoted. I don't want to get a position without necessarily being ready for it. I would like to be as ready as I can. This post points me in the right direction. I think I have been doing good, and my boss has been helping, but I still think there is more I/we can do. Thanks for sharing your insights. One more thing to add to my little notebook of insights!
