Would finding videos for each unit and studying them unit I actually know it and do a game and study the game do worksheets go over the slideshow my teacher posted and study those will that help me before my exam on the 9th

I am in class 12th this year. Wasted class 11th. Now in unit exams we are being tested on organic. I need to study iupac isomerism etc. So should I study from om sir's oneshots or alakh sir's old video lectures or ncert or smth else. Need help asap.

Thank you to this group for the incredible tips, tricks and words of wisdom that contributed to a strong passing result.
I had a few impediments to overcome with testing. Scheduled myself to take the test on 4/16 in person. At around question 100 of the test the computer had a tech issue and shut down. The proctors on site called PearsonVue and it could not be solved with IT support. I had to leave and my test was cancelled so I could rebook. It took 8 days to solve with PearsonVue.
I rebooked (or so I thought) for Friday only to realize that morning I didn’t get an confirmation of booking. After calling the PearsonVue center repeatedly with no success of someone answering the phone, I drove the 20 mins there in case I had actually booked. Of course, they no record of me booking and despite having over 10 empty spaces and the on site proctor saying he could absolutely take me in, PearsonVue did not have the capability to book me on the spot and I had to leave.
Luckily I was able to book the next day and got it done. Third times a charm and I passed on the first try with 3 AT’s.
The tips and takeaways I feel helped: -Andrew Ramdayal Udemy course. I went back and listened to the mindset section at least 5 times after completing the whole course. - DM YouTube videos. -Various Mindset podcasts. Search PMP Mindset on Spotify -ThirdRock notes. I read the full and cheat sheet twice -Study Hall Essentials. I often see questions about the scores on the mock exams so I’ll share mine- Mock Exam 1: 75% and Mock Exam 2: 78%. Spend time understanding your mistakes. - This forum. I checked it daily to pick up ideas for tools and studying practices and saved a bunch to reference as I got closer. -Aileen Ellis- I don’t see her mentioned here often but I found this video particularly helpful. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MQ0f7WLYTlI
The test was on par with Study Hall for me, if not slightly more tricky. In the third section I was wearing down from exhaustion and definitely stared blankly at a few questions but did not allow myself to get bogged down and chose an option, flagged the tricky ones and moved on. It took me the entire test time to finish with only 12 seconds to spare.
I had about 5-6 drag and drops, no MBTI, no calculations to do but did need to know SPI/CPI , no graphs. Questions were largely in the difficult category with a few moderate/ easy sprinkled in. Mindset was the biggest thing I focused on and it helped me eliminate answers that would not be ideal. I found that 2 answers were easy to eliminate and 2 were a toss up.
To wrap it up- thank you to so many who contributed your experiences in the process of earning your PMP. Best wishes to anyone testing soon…..you got this!

For four years straight, I was all about drinking and studying for classes. Playing video games, driving cars for fun. Hanging out with boys, nearly never with girls. I did not really had a girlfriend during high school. My experience ends with kissing a few girls, but nothing more. The situation is: The senior class was about to end, so I thought to try my chances with my crush - a girl from my class (I had a rule that I don't date people from my class. For my friends, it ended badly. But as school ends, I tried). We did not talk much during all our school years.
I asked her out on the last day of school. There were no classes, just an ceremony for high school graduates. After that ceremony, everybody from our class (ex-class already?) went to a bar for drink and to have a chat. She was talking all the time with her friends so I waited when she would be alone to have a good time to invite her for a date. Everybody was slightly drunk. However, when I approached her, she was in a hurry and about to leave - without much thinking, I said to her: "Sorry, but can you wait a moment? I need to ask you sth. Four years have already passed. This is the last moment, we won't see each other in the corridors or in classes. We didn't talk much, there weren't many opportunities, but what do you think about getting a beer or going somewhere together during the weekend to get to know each other better?".
She had her eyes open wide, and she looked shocked/puzzled at me. After an awkward few seconds she said "Maybe. We will talk later, okay?". I did not have any idea what that reply even meant, why not a yes/no answer? After a moment, I just said "Ok. I will text you later. Bye". She hugged me (This surprised me a bit, we were just classmates, she never did that as a goodbye) and walked away.
The question is - her answer was a polite way to say "no" or did she really need to think about it? The final exams are very soon, so it may not be a good time, but if not now - then never. I won't see her later. I asked her out with a "nothing to lose" mindset. Yet, if I text her, where should I invite her?

I graduated in 2022 in CSE. I was not of the socializing kind nor was I very much inclined towards coding either. Still managed to make a few friends till the end of grad. Yet then missed out on a lot of opportunities to enjoy college life due to covid and my dreaded social anxiety.
Long story short, I decided to switch my career after graduating. Took up a job as a service validation engineer on campus and quit after 6 months to learn design**( my biggest regret now).** Feeling that pursuing a masters would give me a career boost, I attempted the entrance test (the competitive exam to study design at various prestigious colleges in India) in Jan 2023 but did not get through. Was sitting at home a whole year. Made up my mind to upskill myself and atleast get an internship. But me being a chronic procrastinator was just waiting for the right time. Or I dont know what had got into my head, I started comparing myself with others. Day in day out, sitting in front of the laptop, just planning out things without doing much. Even planning seemed like an accomplishment. Did push myself to learn relevant design skills but always abandoned it. The depressing part is my parents, who I consider my whole world, were thinking I was upto something good and was improving myself. In the blink of an eye, it was August 2023. Again pushed myself to prepare for the exam in 2024. After much delaying again to the chagrin of my conscience, I started preparing in September. Worked hard compared to last year and was pretty confidence that I would crack the exam this time. Come January 2024, I attempted it pretty confidently and came home satisfied. But luck did not favour this time too and I failed. Dejected, I spent almost 3 weeks doing nothing and just brooding. The thing is, to get into design colleges, you need a portfolio of projects to showcase to a panel of interviewers only after which you get a seat in the college. My parents suggested me to go to a private college which is pretty expensive btw.
Tbh, I am just left with no motivation to do any futher studies or even design for that matter. I have gone into a period of too much negative self talk and overthinking. I have realized it and I want to come out of it but I am just delaying things. I am not able to think anything straight, and social media has made it worse. Even applying to private universities is too late now. I dont know what has gotten into me. Looking back at my 24 years of life, I have realized that I have not achieved anything remarkable yet. Nothing to be proud of. And now I am unemployed overthinker stuck in a rut. My parents are already disappointed and want to desperately help. In all this time, I have realized that I have not learnt any skills. Even learning any skill would take me time and I would have a couple of years of gap on my CV. I want to come out of this. I have started overthinking and feeling gloomy to the level that my parents asked me if I am in need of therapy.
Often I look up on social media and see people going through bigger problems than me and I think I do not even deserve to talk about what I am facing right now. I dont even deserve to pray to God because God only helps those who work for something. I dont even know what do I do now, what do i want to do now. Everything seems intimidating. Everything interests me. Copywriting, bodybuilding, photography, everything seems intimidating. People my age have something going on. People younger than me are doing so many things. Time is ticking and I dont know where to go. This career switch was my biggest mistake. I know people have something worse going on, and I think I have not even seen my worse times yet, but I do need to get out of this. I have seen so many self help videos that my YT feed is flooded with them. Lately i have come to think that I am not creative at all. I have been told all my childhood that I am very creative. But now that I see myself in the industry competing with others, I am nothing. I cant come up with ideas. I am not able to think creatively. My mind is cluttered.
Now I have asked for help in various reddit communities but was ignored. Please fellow men, do not let this be just another ignored post. I want to talk before my mental health further spirales down to some level from where I cant come out.

I've been getting back on track with life for sometime, it has been a steady curve with fall downs, such times leave me feeling more down with no source of pride or joy, It's in moments like these that the silence of my own company becomes deafening, and the desire for a connection, a confidant, feels more pressing than ever.
A bit about me - I'm a 24 year old guy navigating the ups and downs of life, in Italy. I've always been someone who values deep, meaningful conversations, someone who finds solace in the quiet moments. But, it's also in those quiet moments that the weight of loneliness can feel the heaviest.
I'm a full-time student, part-time worker and all day in cloud of my thoughts which does keep me busy, but I've always believed in making time for what's important. Outside of my studies, you can find me:

• Getting lost in the world of books. I'm an avid reader, with a love for anything from classic literature to contemporary non-fiction. Sharing book recommendations or even just talking about our latest reads would be a dream.
  
• Exploring the great outdoors. There's something about nature that just grounds me. Whether it's a simple walk in the park by pond or a spontaneous car drive.
  
• Diving into movies and series. I have a soft spot for existential crisis movies that align with reality, but I'm always up for a good drama, horror or thriller. Maybe we could share our must-watch lists?
  
• Sports, Video games and gym but for now I feel too bad about doing anything other than focusing on my failures from my exam.
  

Physically, I'm of slim build, with short dark hair and some times glasses that I like to think add a touch of scholarly charm. I'm about 183 cm, with a style that's decent. I'm not one to turn heads, but I believe in the importance of being presentable.
What I'm looking for is simple, yet seems so hard to find - someone within a similar age range (±5 years), ideally in the EU for time zone compatibility. Distance isn't a deal-breaker, but being able to share moments without worrying about a significant time difference would be ideal.
More than anything, I value honesty, empathy, and the willingness to build something meaningful. If you're someone who values deep, thoughtful conversations and doesn't mind the occasional venting session about life's trials and tribulations, then I think we might just get along.
If any of this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you, as respect for myself, my time and my energy, I won't entertain low-effort messages. Let's find some light in these seemingly grim times.

I have given up at this point
I am 18 years and have been addicted to porn and video games from 4 years it’s not that I I want to see them it’s either out of boredom or I want to fill the void inside me or just escaping the situation I know that I have work to do but I don’t do it I need to write entrances for unis but procrastinated so much missed half of the opportunities I play games and watch reels the whole day one day before the exam starts I tell myself that I will change the effect lasts maximum for about 1 day at best then I go back slowly I keep giving myself reasons that I’m not meant for this or that I don’t like studying I tried thinking of suicide in the past few months as I also had gone through a heartbreak I have no real friends to talk to my dad is disappointed in me I have no hope of doing or changing as I know that either ways once I tell I’ll change I’ll go back after some time you might say that it’s my mindset that I’ll say myself that I’ll fail and because if that I’m going to fail but no I’ve tried every single thing there is to right now I need to actually do something with my life but still I don’t I just can make myself to go and study even if I do it’s just for a hour for the exams I need to give it is nowhere near sufficient I am so done with myself that to escape from the guilt I acknowledge that I’m scared and that I might fail so voluntarily I go and watch porn and jack off 4 to 5 times to the extent that I’m numb of the feeling then I actually think I can change and the cycle changes I don’t even know if I’ll get help but I’ve tried every single way listened to thousands of YouTube videos including dr.ks I don’t know what or how to change my life If someone can actually help me I will be forever grateful to you and for example if I say to myslef that the world will make me suffer or that the world will throw everything against me at the end I’ll just cope by saying who cares what the world wants what I feel is the best so inside my mind I’ll cope and give myself a reason for example what you told I’ll take it in the way in which ok why the worlds gonna give me the worst why even bother trying when I know the worst I gonna happen Not telling your wrong bro appreciate the help just saying how my fucked up mind works Pls help me as I’m in a hard state rn

My test is scheduled for May 11. I'm using Passkey standard and only doing the MCQ's,. I got an 80% on the mock exam and a 93% on the practice exam. The intro to Passkey video says "you cannot pass the EA exam by studying the MCQ's only because the actual test will have different questions" which obviously isn't true because plenty of people on this sub say they have but it's giving me anxiety.
I actually am experiencing this scenario. I can take the tests and explain why the answer is correct and why the others aren't (this is a study technique) but then when I get a new question I get it wrong. For example, I got an 80% on the first practice exam I took but then got a 62% on the first mock exam because it was a lot of new questions.
I guess I am mostly venting because Idk how else I can study besides keep doing MCQ's and studying the topics I get wrong. Are the videos worth it? I feel overwhelmed thinking about trying to watch all the videos because it's a lot of hours of videos.
I want to go into the test feeling like I 100% know I'm going to pass it, if you were able to get to that point how did you do it?

I am 10 days out from my Series 66 Exam. My daily schedule has been video lecture, study, practice exam, and review. I have taken 4 simulated exams so far (mix of STC and Kaplan) and am scoring in the 70s. I will continue this pattern for another week. Any supplemental things to add to this routine and/or things to focus on to feel prepared for this test?

33 male Uk 6ft1 197lbs Non smoker non drinker Gym fit No supplements
Symtoms I have to wake up at night and pass a large volume of urine then I’ll go again when I wake up In the morning it’s as if my bodies holding water Reactive lymph nodes that have never gone within the 6 months cervical ones in neck I had one small nose bleed 2 months ago Although I don’t get nose bleeds my nose is dry in a morning and I discover dry boogers
MRCP scan normal last year FBC normal last year 4 more blood tests since all normal within the last 6 months cRP 2 esr 9 Colonoscopy normal Endoscopy normal Mri with contrast of small bowel normal My calprotectin was 153 then 70 it’s now 25 Uranaylisis normal x2 Microscopy Urine sample also normal Chest X-ray normal Abdomen ultrasound last may normal said prostate also normal also no free fluid
Gp declined a psa repeat test has he said my one was normal last year so was the prostate exam said at my age it’s unlikely and no repeat needed and sounds more like I have a over active bladder🤷‍♂️
I don’t know what the bloody nose could be all I think all these sytoms have got to be linked….I don’t want to keep triaging in but I don’t understand why I have these sytoms all pretty much together I just sense somethings up so don’t know what to ask for next……..

disclaimer: the reason why my brother is like this is likely something to do with a mental disorder I feel like, I AM NOT saying ISTPs are be like him

.
he is never wrong, and he never makes mistakea
it's always the others, it's always his teammates, it's always his colleagues
he failed the test because all the teachers hate him
he lost in the video game because it's the controller, it's a glitch in the game, the game is scripted and the internet is buggy
he never apologizes for anything
apology means to him that he's "scared"
he's super possessive and toxic, almost as if he's a narcissistic sociopath, he uses what he owns to blackmail people around him
for example, he borrowed a classmate his pen, now he can blackmail his classmate... as in if he doesn't do what he wants, he'll demand the pen back during an exam etc
like, he is so toxic that I tried so hard to think of the paragraph above and I was UNABLE to reproduce an example of what he does, he's literally disgusting 🤢
his Ti reprents to him flawless errorless reasoning with immaculate accuracy
and everyone else is wrong
even if you present evidence and PROOFS in front of him, he'll use every bit of his brain to do mental gymnastics and put the blame away from him, SOMEHOW
he uses logical fallacies in his speech on a WHIM
what do I do to deal with him? he seems to have went too far in this bs

can someone please send me videos that will help me prep for the AP Gov exam? i feel like i don’t know anything and i’m slowly becoming more stressed since my test is next week 🙁.

Hello po, meron po bang may alam kung may website or resource material na videos na nagdedemo ng neuro exams from demyers 🥹 kailangan lang po, kasi walang kakilalang pwede magturo. TYIA.

Hello all, lurker here. Wanted to write a quick post on my experience. Scored a 838.
Resources used: adrian cantrill + tutorials dojo.
Services that I feel you should be confident in: S3, ELB, VPC, EC2, IAM, SG/NACLs, RDS & Aurora.
Experience: 4-5 months of professional experience in setting up common aws services using IaC. I come from a cybersecurity background as well. Example infra, but are not limited to:
1) Provision an EC2 in a private subnet that you can SSM into, and all the underlying networking resources such as vpc, igw, natgw etc. 2) Dockerized applications in ECS behind an ALB with a registered domain name 3) Multi-tier architecture (helped out alot in my test)
You might not need these experiences but these helped me tremendously, as a result I didn't feel like i needed to "study as hard" compared to other certifications. Of course, i still put in a considerably large amount of time into studying.
Time spent: Spent about 1-2 days a week, roughly 4 hours each day (?), for half a year, reaching 82% on adrian's videos. Allocated more time whenever I had the free time.
Tutorials Dojo: Practiced mostly on timed set cause reviews set take too long which caused fatigue. Instead, my strategy was to finish one timed paper per day and review my answers the next day. TD papers and explanation helped out so much in filling the gaps from Adrian's videos.
Test Results - First Try: averages out to 67% with test 7 being the lowest at 60%
Test Results - Second Try: averages out to be 85%
Final Test: 100%. Took the exam on the same day I took the final test.
Exam: During the exam, I flagged almost half of the questions 💀💀. I also changed alot of the answers after examining key words. My exam strategy was identifying keywords (e.g., PII = Macie), imagining the infrastructure in my head and also asking myself if AWS will configure a service like this. For e.g., say you are unsure if encrypted ebs volume = data in transit is also encrypted. If you think the answer is no, ask yourself what services can encrypt data in transit. Is it savvy of AWS to provide another service for this purpose?
Hope this post gave a little insight on the useful materials, estimated time required and strategy. All the best!

Physics P3 Practical tips:

1. First of all, please don’t panic as there is enough time for you to do the entire questions.
2. Make sure to right all the “measured values” correct to the instrument’s decimal places.
3. SI units are not important for example a measurement written as “78mm” will score the same marks as the student who wrote “7.8 cm”
4. However, consistency of units is important if you are starting the question by measuring length in “cms” then make sure you continue to measure lengths in “cms” throughout the question.
5. Stop watch errouncertainty = 0.2-0.5s
6. While making a table make sure all the values in a specific column have the same number of significant figures.
7. The heading format of table is “Symbol/unit”
8. For gradient calculations make sure you have marked the “dotted triangle” and labelled the points.
9. If there is a point that is too skewed to be included in the graph mark it as an anomaly.
10. If you are making a false origin don’t make constrictions.
11. Y-intercept can be calculated directly from the graph if the x-axis is starting from zero.
12. Make sure to label the axes of the graph.
13. Make sure to cover 70-80% of the graph (This is done by giving the appropriate scale.)
14. When testing a certain relationship, calculate both values of the constant and check for percentage uncertainty. IF the percentage uncertainty is greater then 15 reject the relationship/hypothesis otherwise accept it.

And it is always a good thing to carry a chocolate bar during such exhaustive exams.

Best of Luck!

I am sitting for my physics practical exam tomorrow but I have never stepped foot into a lab, not because I chose not to attend my labs but I didn't have access to one in the first place because I'm home schooling. I tried to watch YouTube videos as much as possible and I've picked up on a lot of things but I feel that it was not enough. Please let me know how bad my situation is.

So I booked an appointment to the DP-203 Microsoft Online Exam in PearsonVue, this wasn't my first time passing an online test through PearsonVUE (i already passed PL-900, AZ-900 and DP-900), i ran the required system test on the day of the exam and it went well (camera, mic, internet etc.), same thing when i got to launch the onvue app before exam (i showed up 30 min before the exam) the checks were all good (ID, testing space pics etc.) and i had to wait in a queue of 50 candidats.
When i was up next the proctor told me to remove my wired headset from my desktop (which was far away from my arm's reach) i showed him that i disconnected it on camera but he kept repeating the same complaint and that i needed to do what he says so i can start my exam and tbh he had a thick accent and couldn't speak/understand simple english, after multiple tries to make it clear to him that i did what was required of me he asked me to wait for another proctor, told me to have a good day and ended the call in a rude way, so i had to relaunch the app and wait for another 40min in the queue.
Another proctor called me to say that my video stream wasn't working although it was working fine in the first call and i can see myself in the onvue platform and i can see it is showing "recording", the proctor told me to relaunch again or to contact the customer service to reschedule the exam if the problem persists, when i chose to reschedule from the onvue platform it gave me a URL that goes nowhere and when i tried to relaunch the app it showed me that my access code is no longer valid.
I couldn't find the exam reservation in the microsoft learn interface. I contacted the PearsonVue customer service by email but still no answer, it was a really frustrating experience and i think i'll just have to accept that i lost 110$ for nothing.
