i would give up now and avoid the disappointment.

I took the BEC exam back in May and passed. I'm currently studying for the Audit exam for the end of this month. Good luck on your test TS.

CA exams are even tougher...like 25% passes so be happy your doing an easier route.

Those rates are not out of line with many professional licensure exams. State bar pass rates vary widely, but in some states can dip into the 30's. The patent bat routinely drops below 30 percent, and from what I recall will go as low as 17% sometimes.

The CPA literally determines your salary

Am I f*cked or what? I'm a serious procrastinator, but I feel prepared. But then again, I'm sure pretty much everyone who walked into the testing facility felt prepared. Anyone else taking a major exam like this? Bar Exam? Other?

Yep. The last big test I had was a herpes test, I felt prepared...

Relax and you will pass. Stress and you will fail
