Failing

My 10 year class reunion is quickly approaching and so it made me want to reminisce. I pulled out my old letter jacket as well as all of my graduation gowns. If you were to look at all of these things it looks like I have accomplished a lot and it would appear that I was good at everything I did. I excelled in band, did pretty well in academics (graduated with honors), and I knew how to work hard. College wasn't quite so easy but I still earned my accounting degree from the best accounting school in the state. I then went on and earned my Masters degree where I didn't make straight A's but I did finish with above a 3.5 GPA all while working a full-time job. It would appear that I am a smart person. I used to think that too until I started trying to pass the exams to become a CPA. I have never failed at anything in my life. So whenever I keep getting these failing scores it makes me feel completely and totally stupid. I'm not very good at feeling that way. I have been on this journey for almost 2 years now and still have not passed a single section. I came within 5 points of passing one but that doesn't count. I just wonder if I am cut out to be a CPA or if I should just give up. I've never given up on anything...ever. I just wish I had a crystal ball so I could look into the future to see how long it takes (if ever) for me to pass this stupid exam.
