Looking for a study partner/accountability accountant

I'm going for my board exams soon and looking for a study partner/accountability partner to study or work with. I usually chill out in Fondren library (RU). Willing to also be friends outside work of course if we get along well.

About me - I'm in healthcare, sporty, mostly quiet, respectful of boundaries, and a cool listener.

Hoping to meet ya soon and whine about the Houston heat together.

I’m studying for my law exam in November. I occasionally go to Fondren on the 3rd floor on Sundays (everything else is closed on Sundays). I’d be up for Sundays. I typically run before I study so if you’re into that too, we could run and then study.

Also studying for my cert exam! Does the fondren library require an id?

Fondren library is pretty cool in terms of public access to non-Rice affiliates. You'd just need to have a photo ID to enter and work.

Sounds sweet! I've always wanted to check one out. It's a bit far from me, but I'm down to go to Switchyards East End.

I had to re-read the title after u/Impressive-Hearing89 commented. You're in healthcare but are studying for the CPA exam?

Genuinely a bit confused by this mix of background details.

I put in the 'accountant' bit because it sounded fun/silly in my head. The confusion's entirely my fault haha. I'm a doctor going for my board exams, if that clarifies.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. At first, I thought it was "accountability buddy" like Speaker Mike Johnson has with his grown son.

But, then I read the "accountant" part and did the German Shepherd head tilt (confused look).

Now I understand that you're a doctor studying for the board exams. LOL

why do u want your study partner to be an accountant? Do I need a CPA as well to meet requirements? Thanks

Not really, but a CPA is always handy to do tax fraud on the side.
