I am sorry to learn of your test - it is a tough exam and it happens to the best minds.  Our private equity firm has a need for a Controller/CPA to join our dynamic team to both assist with firm in a Controller Capacity and also to work closely with one of our portfolio companies in Greece.  Therefore, fluency in Greek is a must.

I took Reg last month and I&amp;#39;m sure I failed that too as I left the testing center a wreck.  I&amp;#39;m now studying for BEC like you!!
