She is an avid podcast listener, so she found the SuperfastCPA podcast and quickly started implementing the strategies, right from the start. You'll hear how Annette was able to become a morning person just while taking the CPA exams. Studying in the morning was the only way to get studying done with her busy life. She also mentions that she never studied for more than 8 weeks per exam, usually only about 6 weeks. She was even able to take a break on Sundays!
