Hi,

I’m in the middle of studying for my CMA. I am using gleim, and my total study time will be 6 weeks from when i started to when ill be taking the exam. I’m currently panicking and wondering if thats even enough time to study. I originally was supposed to take it june but moved it to september. I don’t want to pay again and move it to feb just cuz I’m panicking. I’m an accounting student in my last semester of college and I’m just really scared to fail. If anyone passed and has the same bg as me, how long did you study for? Seeing people study for 2-3+ months is rly scaring me. lol.

Hey guys, i have two best friends that I introduced to each other, Anne & Elle. We all game together with Elle’s boyfriend and often times I would be busy and couldn’t join so Anne and Elle started playing and they got a littleeee bit closer as well. Slowly, Anne and Elle started playing games together and Anne even started asking Elle for advice about a situationship she was having. Slowly, Elle shared with me that sometimes she doesn’t enjoy playing Anne because she can be a bit bossy when it comes to gaming and wants us to do the work and doesn’t want to do it herself. From Elle’s side this behavior kept piling up until she “snapped” at Anne. What had happened was- the 3 of us were gaming and Anne had ran across the map and was fighting a team and ended up getting pushed and asked for help and Elle got annoyed and told her that she shouldn’t be pushing teams without us, and Anne took those comments as Elle was calling her a bad player and they got into a bit of an argument, I wouldn’t call it heated- tho. Anyways throughout the game Anne had gotten rly silent and I asked like hey where did you go etc etc. after that day, Anne had called me and caught me off guard and was like hey what the hell was that with Elle yesterday? And I was like yeah I don’t know and she goes “why didn’t you say anything?” The question caught me super off guard and I said to her that “I wasn’t sure what to say since it seemed like you stood up for yourself and there wasn’t much for me to say.” She then said that she would never let someone speak to me this way and that I should’ve said something because it was super uncomfortable for her and it’s unfair for me to expect her to stand up for herself to my friend. I told her that I was planning on speaking to Elle privately anyway, and that in the moment wouldn’t have been good since both of them were probably a bit riled up. She expressed fhat she thinks I should’ve said something in the moment. In my opinion, I don’t think I should’ve said anything in moment bc it would’ve looked like I was taking sides, and I’ve also never been in a situation where I’ve had two friends argue. Also it was unrelated to me it was something between them and Anne seemed to have handled it just fine. also- it was an argument in a game and no one was being nasty to one another so there was rly no place for me to chime in. But I’m not sure- I think waiting privately was the move and after that both of them spoke and they couldn’t come to a common ground, again- they were not being nasty but they couldn’t come to an agreement and don’t play together again. I apologized profusely to Anne and told her why I waited to say something privately and how I felt horrible for how the situation went. I still think I did my part in handling it well for having to deal with this for the first time. What should I have done?
