4/4 after 7 long years, a credit expiry, and a 6/30 deadline

TLDR; “the only time you fail is when you give up” - my Uber driver one time

I passed REG right after I graduated college and for some reason just stopped studying. I would fake study one module and fail. I would fake study some more. I would no show. At some point my REG credit expired. I no joke, probably signed up for 15 exams throughout the years. Eventually, I decided to start taking things seriously and passed BEC (yay!) Then I passed AUD (yay!) and then the most miraculous thing happened - Missouri gave me my REG credit back. I was 3/4!!!!! And then the most disastrous thing happened. I had moved to New York amongst the years and New York said no! We’re going to make this impossible for you and void your credit extension. But that’s okay. Because although the 6/30 deadline for BEC expiring was approaching in like 6 months, I was determined and passed REG again. However, now I only had a few months to pass FAR and I was scared of FAR. I failed round one. :( This left me with about two weeks to CRAM or else I’d go back to 2/4. All this to say I found out today I passed my last ever CPA exam!!!!! I am 4/4!!! If you stuck with my story this long, thank you so much lol love you and if you’re still on the study grind - never ever ever give up!!!!! Even if you think it’ll never end. If I can do it, anyone can. Truly.
