Just overtook Goldster heh. Haven't gotten to reading that just yet.

Nothing now. I am independently studying Bravo. Just think it would be good to have a structured program.
Easy to get complacent with waiting, kudos atcha for staying productive

So for Bravo I recorded myself reciting all of the information 3x and I play it in the car/ at the gym. I think it has helped me learn the material so much faster. Breaking it out into sections and listening to it. Just my 2 cents I wanted to add.

Edit: will do the same for Charlie and Delta.

Some grade A study habits, not surprised.

Would join you in memorization but will wait until I actually get selected as my scores weren't as stellar as I planned for. Going to focus on physical fitness for the meantime as I've been getting soft on myself.

I thought your scores were pretty good?

Scoring well is relative I suppose. I studied (but not enough) and figured I could grind it out like many another giant exams I've taken, overconfident. Got a 51 6/7/6 which isn't too bad all things considered. Had my sights on 8s all across so it was a let down personally.

I hate making excuses so this isn't one as I still made the dumb decision to take the test so I'll just share my pre test story just for sharing sake. 2 weeks before the exam date welcomed a son into the world which was great, just not for my sleep. Day prior to exam didn't sleep at all, overcaffinated myself to make up for it and had my brain literally freeze at points in the reading and math.

Biggest lesson there I learned for the future is to postpone if you are just not there mentally (and can). No penalty for doing it except for getting your recruiter annoyed.

I have seen people get picked up with those scores. Me being at 5/7/5 cuts it way to close. Though I have used up all my tries, so I’m stuck now with the scores now. The thing I’m worried about is a DNR this round because of not having any more test tries.... ?
