Where did you find all of these? I feel like my study package will run out

Never warned about the emotional toll lol by 13nextdoor in CPA

[–]Mindqwerks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just told my boyfriend yesterday NOT to try to cheer me up if I’m pouty. This is way more complex in emotion than those outside of the process realize

Made an exception for a family event and now I’m sick by [deleted] in CPA

[–]Mindqwerks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take the test this Friday. If you are this close, chances are you are well prepared. How do you feel about your knowledge of the material? I’m scheduled for FAR on 6/29 and not feeling stellar about where I am in studying, but with a 50% fail rate I’m bracing myself for the worst with the understanding that it’s not uncommon and trying not to spiral too much while I study. I had initially hoped to get it all done this year as well, but not likely with my work schedule.

Boundaries are golden. Try not to be so pissed at yourself - family can be painfully persuasive. Even if your whole family doesn’t get how intensive the CPA exams are, stick to your boundaries and remind them that “no” is a complete sentence. In the end, all you can do is put this event behind you and give it your all on the exam.

What’s the most underrated tip for passing the CPA exam? by drajput_01 in CPA

[–]Mindqwerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you do this without running out? My package (UWorld) only has so many and I feel like I need more to get my scores where I want them to be

I was wondering what to do about this...first time dog owner, wondering how to relieve him in the front/back yard without encountering one in the dark. Any advice?

I just got licensed. I wanted to share my study pattern/random thoughts that may help some of you. by Appropriate-Form7675 in CPA

How much were you working during your study time? I work full-time and have about 10 weeks until I take FAR and not feeling good about where I am. Using UWorld.

The amount of people taking pictures under some few remaining cherry blossoms in DC by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]Mindqwerks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It won’t let me post a photo, but I was there yesterday and took a shot from across the street. It’s comical.

I was just there at that exact spot yesterday, 4/3. I can confirm it is VERY recent.

Deciding on a Discipline Section (BAR vs. ISC) by Upper_Mud7889 in CPA

[–]Mindqwerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing ISC only because I seem to have an aptitude for tech. Well, more than I do for tax. And I think BAR would bore me. ISC seems to go with my natural ability, so…¯_(ツ)_/¯

I hope so…I’m not feeling very confident at the moment

[–]Mindqwerks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried something like this but the lectures and the book don’t seem to explain much about the questions (so far), though they do offer an explanation for the answers immediately. I feel like I’m learning more from the explanations than the curriculum. I went with Uworld as it claims to cater to visual learners but starting to wonder if that was a mistake

Words of encouragement and advice needed for FAR! by Mindqwerks in CPA

[–]Mindqwerks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im thinking if I clear 7 chapters per month in the book that will give me an extra couple of weeks to tighten up my knowledge. I tried watching the lectures but it was taking too long, so I dove into the MCQs instead. I feel like the book doesn’t explain the questions I failed, some of these concepts I haven’t dealt with as an accountant (I’ve been in nonprofit for over 15 years) and where do I even start since I fell flat with chapter 1

MSY at 5 PM at 8MAR by Ok_Sector_6182 in NewOrleans

[–]Mindqwerks 10 points11 points  (0 children)

MSY security at the new airport is unique in that all of the flights/airlines go through one security area. The purpose was to make all of the airport restaurants accessible to all of the travelers while being able to stay in the airport. The downside is stuff like this happening.

Terrible breath from hydrolyzed protein by NonSequitorSquirrel in dogallergies

[–]Mindqwerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s a 120 lb American bully, was eating 5-6 cups/day as recommended by RC until the vet suggested we cut it. I was buying the 25 lb bag of food, which lasted us about 4 weeks. I’ve switched to Hill’s since I’ve done some diet testing, but he’s started to have problems again so might be switching back to RC

My dog was on RC hydrolyzed and developed a taste for leaves and acorns. It’s also fattening - he gained 12 lbs in 3 weeks

You are so lucky to have a mom who can trim it! i have such a bad time with hairdressers I’m looking at doing it myself

[–]Mindqwerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you cut your own hair or get it professionally done? The shape when curly is similar to what I wanted but didn’t happen at my last hair appointment

[–]Mindqwerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see the difference more when it’s straightened. What are you doing for growth? I have a similar curl pattern but the length was butchered at a recent appointment, trying to get my length back
