Oh, so I'm gonna tell you right now that studying during busy season is a completely futile endeavor. You won't have time or the brain for it. Try to knock out REG before busy season and then plan to start anew after busy season ends.
For sure. I'm just hoping if I study about 24 hours a week, I can perhaps get two exams done by early January. Regardless, once busy season starts, I'm taking a break, lol.

As a CPA myself, it's going to be the worst 18 months of your life. I'll give you some tips:

Don't ask your CPA's if you have any questions on what you're studying, odds are they threw all of that out of their heads the moment they got their CPA license. It's better to directly ask the cram course you purchased about the questions, since most of them can answer it in laymen terms.

Put your 100% in passing the first time, take it seriously, take the test at the end and concentrate most on the parts of the chapters that you got wrong. Biggest thing is to endure it and once you got your CPA license, it is with you for life. Just having that 3 letters next to your name guarantees means the sky's the limit in how much money you can make.

My strat was to tackle the easy ones first (REG) and the hardest part last (FAR) because I'm one of those losers that needs positive reinforcements to move forward. The common strat is to tackle the hardest one first and the easiest last, which works for most people so it depends on which field you specialize in and how you like to study.
I mean, your way of doing it ain't too bad. At least you didn't have to stress about FAR first and fear that if you fail it, it's all doom and gloom. Thank you for your tips as well, hopefully I can pass first try and not worry.
