On Friday, I will be getting the results of my first test to become a professional accountant. I can honestly say that I am petrified. I feel like garbage, and I really do not want to have to re-write. Re-writing is not the end of my career or anything, but its something I do not want to have to go through.
The recommended number of study hours is 130 for this test. I may have only put in 50-60 in the last week leading up to the exam. Those were some pretty intense study sessions, but I feel like I didn't know enough for the exam. The results are relative as the top 7-8 deciles will pass, but this is little comfort as CA students are often very bright individuals. Firms usually snatch up some of the best students from University, so the competition can be tough enough.
During university, I could fail an exam and it wouldn't bother me. Therefore, I wouldn't be nervous about getting the results of the exam, pass or fail. This time its different. I don't know exactly why, but I don't feel too good. When practicing for the exam, co-workers were scoring higher than me consistently. It wasn't because I was any smarter or dumber than them, but I just hadn't been studying nearly as much.
Oh well... Friday will come and go. I really have no options but to accept the results. Lets just hope its the results I want to see.
