Ya know what, all that said. You ARE going to finish it. The finish line looks sooooo far away,:eek: ,but it really isn't. It feels like this is taking FOREVER, :banghead:, it really doesn't. And you wonder HOW are you gonna pay for it all because it feels like the spending on it will never end, :crying2:, you WILL find the $$$$.

I only know because I am now, just a few steps ahead of you. I was going through the same turmoil just days ago (it seems like). But here I am. FINALLY passed all my exams and waiting for the arrival of the FCCA and CPNE date. I too have kids, family issues, work & everything else, but I made it.

Just keep your head down, and keep plowing forward. You will make it too. :hug:

It's easy to start feeling stuck or loose motivation. Just keep going and you will be done before you know it. Life gets in the way at times but it's worth it to make it to the end. You should check in with the motivation thread and tell everyone what you are working on this week.

When I took the test, I could literally feel my heart pound out of my chest. It was so nerve racking but it will be over soon!

Seriously, taking an exam makes me physically feel ill. I can't even eat all day before I take them. I can't even imagine how much of a wreck I am going to be for the CPNE.

I am starting to feel so burnt out, but everytime I pass one more exam and get that updated eval... it motivates me to push on! I am 3 credits away from the FCCA and CPNE. I am so glad I passed my exam today, good luck to all my class-mates testing this week! :-)

Me too! I'm working on ls3 currently. I can not even think of the cpne! I know I will be so scared and nervous anyhow so I refuse to look or read posts or info on it until I get there...... Hope that is not going to bite me in the butt in the long run!! :confused: what r u working on now??
