我女儿在中国出生， 3岁时在美国住过半年，当时我们比较忙，再加上一直在我父
母身边长大，后又送回国。在当地上了一年多小学(4-5岁)。 5岁后随夫母探亲来美。
当时是想让她跳级的，因为生日比较大。国内开了一个上到二年级的证明，与
学校商谈未果。学校理由是我们只看年龄，不管经历。总的来讲我们战斗力差，
和学校较量屡战屡败。
先上K，因为一点不懂英语，去了特殊班。。一年级时转为正常班。大约在三年级
后期有一天突然接到老师电话，因孩子成绩优异转为特殊班。(gifted program)
数学和写作在这个班上，其他诸如体育和音乐仍在普通班。惊喜呀。我们之前一
点也不知道这个。
在这里我再说一下我的孩子。我的孩子不是天才，还比较聪明(她爸觉的她没他聪
明，和我结婚让我中和坏了：-))。她有兴趣的东西她学的比较好，也不用管。她
没兴趣的东西就得逼。不自觉又贪玩还不爱学习，但比较听话，也基本知道什么
对她好(虽然不喜欢)。我的孩子数学成绩不是特好因为没兴趣，所以主要抓这个了。
(别的也抓不了)
有了这个经历, 我们终于明白了。原来美国的小学成绩不是无所谓的，四

From EY "Insider":
Jan. 1 through Jan. 15th: Admin, Finance, and Transfer Pricing people cut in
the Northeast area offices, a LOT of them.
Feb. 1 through 15th - Client serving staff to be cut, but NO mass lay-offs
according to a voicemail by Americas Chairman... whatever
March 1 through 15th - PPEDs to be affected
............................................................................
.....
EY:
PPEDs were already advised they are getting cut. They just get six weeks to
get themselves togeth

One message from DT Consulting:
.....If you are new and has not had chance working on any project yet, you
should be fine.
but if you had project experience and with not-good review, there is chance
of being let go..........although you probably just joined as new hire
couple of months back...

Prelude - How this is planned ahead...(DT)
"......We all cynically realized that the Firm's renewed and enthusiastic
focus on "mid year evaluations" and providing "feedback" was simply a ploy
to prioritize the order people are to be sent to the chopping block..."

Don't get frustrated of what you would hear from the mid-year feedback, not
worth it...
take your own life seriously....

you think passing parts of the CPA will do any good on your evaluation?
althought I did know a 2nd year who passed all 4 parts were let go.....

Simply put---NO.
Passing CPA is a given, nothing advantageous.
Again, this is nothing but business decision, it happens!
