@Emma Bezzle, Okay, you'll need concentration for that. Testing window ends March 10? When are you taking it?))

 

[Chase]

@Pitya Ivyr, Yeah, a hard drive I thought was dead began working again randomly... even found old photos of when an archeologist friend and I went to Cambodia to survey a temple before restorations.))

 

[Emma Bezzle]

@Chase, April at the earliest. I've been lagging a bit in submitting my registration to sit which can take 4-6 weeks for approval))

 

[Chase]

@Emma Bezzle, Second round of tests for the year then? Sounds like you have some time still.))

 

[Chase]

Is there a limit to how many times you can try the CPA exam?))

 

[Emma Bezzle]

@Chase I don't think there's a limit on how many times you can take it, but once you pass your first part you have 18 months to pass the other 3, otherwise you lose credit for the exams you've already passed and have to start all over again))

 

[Chase]

Will this be your first one, then?

 

[Chase]

18 months seems like a decent amount of time. And after this, you'll officially become an accountant?

 

[Chase]

That's no time at all, really.

 

[Emma Bezzle]

I still need to fulfill the work experience requirement. 2000 hours of practical accounting work under a CPA.

 

[Emma Bezzle]

At least, that's Maryland's requirements.

 

[Chase]

So basically you need about a year or so of extra experience.
