i started studying earlier this year. I put in 4 hours a day, 7 days a week consistently in anticipation of the April test. Then my mom died unexpectedly the first week of March. Needless to say, the studying flew out the door. I still took the test last weekend, because I had committed - the change in career was discussed with my family and Mom was my biggest cheerleader. We talked about what all we were going to do when "i get rich". I ran out of time on the test, so those last few questions in each section were just a random choice, so who knows if I passed or not. I've registered for June, and had my doctor fill out my request for accomodations, which were approved- but i'm having theeee hardest time getting back into studying. I just stare off into space during a session. How do I on ramp again? We know life can life, but gahdamn, life t-boned me this year.

6/13...yikes! And i know what i'm doing - i'm skimming the passage. I'm applying the same technique that I used with work/life. I'm reading...then it's a yada yada yada, then go to the questions. Going to back to reviewing the correct answers and their analysis, it's embarrassing because HAD I READ THE DAMN THING, I would have gotten it right.

i need the videos!! My brain reacts better to "someone" telling me the story, than me reading the story.
@JoelKeenan Thanks Doc! My BIL has a law firm - he said he'll make me millionaire, so I said, Let's goooooooo!! I'm excited
@monmon woman who pivot!! Wishing you all things positive and amazing. When do you take your test?
Anyone embarking on this as a career pivot? I turn 50 this year, mom & wife, and already have a graduate degree. Just started 7sage and feeling sooooooo overwhelmed. I thought i was smart but this is already kicking my ass, so i'm approaching this as though i'm learning a new language - which essentially I am.
So anyway, send some good vibes my way and hoping to connect as I continue along this journey.
