@"Alex Divine" I have used the the Pomodoro timer before and Pomello, I think, is by the same company; They both have the red apple looking logo and I actually think they do the same thing, except Pomello lets me sync it with Trello which already ha…

@montaha.rizeq I got self control now and Its freaking amazing!!!! It blocks my Safari as well. Also, I have the option of putting a time limit for blocking apps. I am really excited. I have it set on my dock now. So anytime I am about to study, I c…

@montaha.rizeq ooh nice. I checked the planners out, I really like them. I used to be really into them but now that I basically study at Starbucks and library, I feel like I want to keep everything electronic just because I am so much on the move.…

@MrSamIam Yaaay. I am so glad then that I made that long post. I am sure you'll love it. P.S. After all that writing and reviewing yesterday, I realized I left my Palamino sharpener at home today! lol! Had to dig out my old Walmart sharpener f…

@"Cant Get Right" lol that's definitely beast mode. I'll give that a go next time. I am so used to just closing my eyes and taking a deep breath during the 15 minutes break to clear my head and I do feel better that it makes me afraid to try. But I…

haha yeah, I have had that happen to me. One time, instead of green tea I took some coconut water. And It made me feel so thirsty throughout the test even after I drank water, plus I ended up wanting to go to the bathroom in the middle of my 5th sec…

ooooh I like to drink some iced green tea with organic honey to give my brain a glucose boost without the bad sugar. For snack, I take with me half a chicken salad sandwich that I make. It has walnuts, chicken, celery, and cranberries. I never finis…

I don't know about sharpening my pencils during my zen moment; I find doing anything else other than closing my eyes and just breathing breaks my zen moment. Also, for me I need to just breathe and not think about anything during my zen because my b…

@MrSamIam Funny. The Palamino sharpener actually has two pencil sharpener's inside it. One to sharpen the pencil the other to make it pointy! So, it had the same idea you did but made it into one sharpener :DDDD
-
@nanchito I looked them up, it's hard to tell from the pictures but I think it would. I currently use the regular "#2 America's Pencil" from Walmart/Target. So if they are standard size, it will. Also, it seems that the sharpener is not a snug fit o…

ooooh Thank you @"Alex Divine" . I havn't yet but I will definitely give these pencils a try. I have realized pencils and sharpener make soo much of a difference in our study Thank you.

@twssmith I was wondering why you were absent the last two times I attended the meeting. It's good to hear you are back. Can't wait to join you.
-
aww Thank you Josh @"Cant Get Right". Strangely, It's actually very motivating to know that :DD
-
aww Thanks @jessicalj . I would love to. But I have taken a break from PT'ing for a bit to work on LG. I am definitely jealous that i'll get to miss out on the fun. I usually look forward to it. Have fun for me as well at the BR meeting

I loved Harry Potter growing up and wanted to be like Hermoine. :DD lol. But I don't know if I want to read about them all grown up. I think I am afraid to be disappointed by the story line, especially because I never thought Harry and Ginny had any…

The picture made me laugh! so true

@hazelnut13 I don't think so. They were gone for the Admission webinar. They should be back now if you want to join.

I will check that out. I miss Will on the show and that sounds interesting. I am loving how the current season shows the realities of Bond Court and how speed is given priority over justice! I think so many of the other shows like Suite or movie…

I think it depends on the requirement of the conclusion. The conclusion says "cannot" which is solid 100%. Answer choice B, which says "might not", falls short of our job to find another premise which will give us the same scope needed, the cannot,…

oh and also once you are down to your two answers, or even if you have eliminated all of them, I make it a habit to use the negation technique to make sure that I have the correct answer. This has helped me sometimes realize I have the wrong answer.
-
For me, it really helps to spend time upfront on the stimulus. I usually try to see the method of reasoning used in the stimulus by comparing the premise with the conclusion and trying to see how the author has structured his argument. for example, …
-
I just try to keep it simple, like "why is the author talking about this"? oh this is an example, or another critic, or support, Main point. That's it. If any detail is required by a question, I first try to see if i can eliminate any extreme and ou…

Thank you @"Dillon A. Wright"
-
thank you sooo much I am definitely going to try doing a mix of questions from now on from warm up.
-
depends. sometimes, pretty late.
-
yes!
-
Thank you.

@jessicalj Thank you. I think it was a combination of not being used to wait this long to see even my score. But I won't do it next time. Although I feel a bit confident because I know how many I got right, I think not knowing which ones they were d…
-
I didn't want to cheat myself of a good discussion, and learning through group Blind Review. Especially because I am so excited about it and I feel that I need it. But I reasoned, that it wouldn't hurt just to know my overall score and to look at m…

I took PT 57 yesterday, did Blind review today, I am still working on it. Is it okay If i know my score, and my BR score, but not know which ones I got right versus wrong? I just didn't want to loose data. Plus, I felt so awful not knowing my score …
