Two options: take a break or start the next studying for the next one.

I left all but one of my tests assuming I failed, but I passed. So I’m incredibly thankful I didn’t start restudying.

I’d go for the break- unless you’re in a time crunch. It’s busy season so you have plenty of other things to worry about and you just need a break sometimes.

Thank you!!

Someone please tell me where in tf I need to drop my Hinge location in the DMV area to find my person.

I’m convinced I’m going to die alone. And if you have a single guy friend in that area who is a genuinely good person, please let me know 😂

Anyone taken REG this Q yet and can give insight on what areas were heavily tested on for you? It's my last exam and I'm on a marathon to pass it before FAR expires. First time I took it last November resulted in me getting a 74 and losing all motivation to study after being so close to finishing, so I honestly haven't touched Becker in almost a year and don't even remember which areas are the big ticket ones to focus on. Any advice would be much appreciated.
