I would rather die than taking the CPA exam.?

Question

I am seriously lossing my temper at home with this Becker materials. My exam is on next monday. I took one week off from my work, but I can't get anthing into my brain. This will be the 2nd time for me to take the same exam. I have no confident at all, and I hate this exam soo much, my god, I wish they never design this exam. I wasted 3 days on figuring out how to get those crazy materials into my brain, and i can't, I just can't. God, please give me some energy or intelligence, or just let me die before the exam. I hate this exam from the bottom of my heart! Indeed! My job requires me to have this thing, and i can't quit my job now....

Hang in there, Jenny!

And don't psych yourself out.  You got through school, you're doing the job that requires all this training and skills.  You're good enough to accomplish this, too!

So take a short break.  Go get something to put you in a good mellow frame of mind.  Hot chocolate, tea, ice cream, whatever it takes.  Take about 15 minutes to calm down, and then go back at it.  Don't study for more than about 2 hours without a 15-20 minute break.  And don't get mad at it - instead, try to feel confident, poised, calm, and collected.  Picture yourself as a partner in the firm, about to woo a major new client into signing a fat contract with your company, and that you'll collect a tidy bonus from the deal.  All because you're smarter than the average bear!  Go for it, girl!
