undergrad gpa 3.08

graduate gpa 2.78

I'm not your everyday genius. In fact, i'm not very bright at all and probably the least knowledgable person on this forum (hence my gpa), but i busted my f**king ass off the past 2 months and i managed to pass REG. if i can do it, anybody can.

although, i must say i'm in a deeeeeeeep hole studying for FARE right now (which is why i'm getting an MS tax instead of accounting)

find me on the FARE msg board; i'll be asking a lot of questions there for the next few months...

I know FARE is hard, but you can do it! I'm in the opposite situation right now studying for REG (not a tax/law person...).

I scored the following:

3.54 undergrad

3.13 grad

I passed the exam on the first try just by studying, studying, and studying some more. It is doable if you don't underestimate the time it will take you to prepare fully.

Undergrad GPA - 3.4

Graduate GPA - 3.9

I've ony taken one part so far, but I put a lot of effort into studying for it. I think that it what it comes to - effort.

I think the one thing gpa and cpa results have in common is motivation. We all realized a good gpa would help us get a good entry level job and accepted to grad school. We all want the cpa to differentiant oursleves from our co-workers and get the promotion/raise/interesting assignments. We know what we want so we study hard.
