It's getting hard to keep up with 100 questions/weekday honestly. Sometimes I find myself playing catchup over weekends to meet the 500/week quota. Mixed in with some chores for money from my parents on the weekends it's making things a little stressful. They want me to go get my blood tested for thyroid problems too (um...not likely?), but that might have to be rain-checked until I've passed a couple sections. Staying on top of gay ass UCF admissions takes time too. They have a delightful habit of losing transcripts or ignoring them if sent electronically. Also, my boss for 2 years at yacht starship never wrote the recommendation. I realize a letter of recommendation is not an entitlement, but if you say you're going to do it you should probably cough it up sometime within 2 months of receiving the request! It's fairly disappointing.
I'm seeing a down time I guess. Thanks to late application to UT (I didn't even consider applying there until I found out it was potentially feasible) and flagrant incompetence by people at UCF admissions, I only have an acceptance/decision from FGCU with the others still pending. Since FGCU isn't my top choice, I still don't know where I'm going to be living in August. Despite that, I have to fix up this house, mow the lawn in Matlacha and make my 4th dental trip of the summer this weekend, and have already gone to the Sebring house under construction to help over the past weekend. It's less than some other people have to deal with in terms of total workload, but the studying and flagrant and pressing uncertainty surrounding the test and my immediate career/academic future are starting to get oppressive. It doesn't help that I can't get a job because I have no clue what city I should get one in, and that's a problem because food money is therefore derived via chores for my parents. That is NOT a desirable source. I like spending time with them, but their pacing is slow or very erratic which means I often wind up being judged as quitting too early or getting dragged through long periods of uselessness regardless of my actual output. Also, intentionally or not they lord the fact that they support me over me and use it to control my actions. That may have a significant impact on whether I go to UT or stay in Tampa at all, so stay tuned.
On a positive note, I've gotten a lot better in cpa review question %'s. I've had over 85%+ in both BEC and Auditing, and over 70's in REG and FAR. I'm still miserably bad in FAR comparatively (It's the only one I haven't been averaging passing scores in) and so that is the last one I'll be taking. At the end of this week I'll have done 4500 questions so I have a good idea of topics I need to specifically shore up prior to taking a section. It looks like I need to pass some of these though. I do NOT want to study like this while in school and working. More like, I can't. It takes too long and I'll have to cut the questions/day. The more of these I can pass in the coming weeks, the better.
