Advice on How to Move Forward with The Exams
Not sure where to start
Started studying for the exams back in January of 2025
-
I became a dad in March 2025
-
I passed FAR May 2025
-
Work is hectic. 60-90 hours for the past year and a half or so. Do not see this calming down anytime soon. With projects and then end of year around the corner I see it getting worse tbh.
-
My mom passed away a few months ago
-
I should be studying for Audit next
I am obviously exhausted and lacking the motivation to do anything between work, lack of sleep, and grief.
I guess at this point I'm wondering about 3 things:
-
Is the CPA even worth it anymore with where this industry is heading?
-
Should I be looking for another job?
-
If yes to the above 2, which should I pursue first?
Thanks in advance for the advice.
