@AlexT22 same here. chose the correct answer first but fell victim to overthinking and switched it. only then to go with my original gut feeling and got it correct on BR. frustrating.
A few things that work for me...thinking of why I am doing this! I have pictures of loved ones on my desk where I study to keep myself motivated as I know they believe in me. I wear more formal, yet comfortable clothing when studying to feel good and more in confident in myself. I take breaks as I need and step away from my screen when really frustrated at a Q or problem to think and move. you got this! just find what works for you and build on that. I have realized this takes time, and being locked in for the whole time is not reasonable. breathe, you got this.
overconfidence on some answer choices kills me. i think i have the right answer and select it and move on in an attempt to be on the right time. only to find out it was the next answer (which I didn't read) that was correct. frustrating and I knwo im hurting myself by doing this.
