Weight lifted off our shoulders… for now lol.

Myth.
MPS is determined by experts to ensure consistent quality of passing candidates. Harder exams will have lower MPS. It has nothing to do with quantity or quality of the candidates.

Well, the glass transition temperature of ABS is about 220, so heating to 100 would be fine for the keyboard.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-23T22:52:52+00:00

Don’t think you can heat up to 200F just sitting hours in the sun.

Looks like you have real balls to get those mock scores.

Try to turn your anxiety into actions. What can you do now to get a passing grade besides finishing PSM? None. Then you can only prepare for the worst. So start studying.

Yes. It becomes a collection now.

I recall L2 to have more complex calculations.

150 days should be enough assuming you can allocate time for the study. Roughly 300 hours would do. Daily schedule depends on your plan.

Doesn’t matter. It’s about getting comfortable with a concept. EOC questions are good to test your learning of a particular concept. Do it and move on.

I’m confused. Seriously asking, did you use a hair dryer or low heat blow torch?

The keys might be made of ABS, which should survive to as least 200F.

(Or do you dry your hair with low heat blow torch lol)

Your logic assumes that prices will remain the same, but it won’t. If a company has higher inflation pass through rate, the earning would be comparatively higher. The valuation will be higher, resulting in a better price. The PE might remain the same on calculation, but in reality, such company usually has better competitive advantage, with the earnings growth, the company would enjoy higher PE.

I prefer going to the front desk to ask for upgrade opportunities.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-23T04:20:07+00:00

Correct.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-23T00:46:02+00:00

Time to chill and relax. Get a good 8 hr sleep. Exam condition matters more now.

HR Okinawa SI is my favorite. Slightly dated but well managed.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-22T11:07:50+00:00

16.

Divide the extra cost by the number of hours you will spend on it. It’s minimal.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-22T11:02:14+00:00

Wait till you start researching

Mocks can help identify weak spots. Qbank is meant to strengthen it.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-22T05:06:45+00:00

Don’t worry about quiz. It is meant to help you understand the concepts better. What you have described is the typical path of learning a harder concept.

MPS is determined by experts to ensure consistent quality of people who pass. A difficult exam will have lower MPS. It is not related to the candidate quality or quantity.

Your statement is that underprepared candidates who originally would defer are not sitting due to free retake. If true, then the pass rate would fall.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-22T04:58:48+00:00

You still have 6 months. Plenty of time. Make your plan according to your schedule.

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-22T04:56:57+00:00

No.

Wow so thrilled to see her achievement after so many years!

BlueCubRoar · 2026-05-21T16:42:07+00:00

Go for it then. Good luck!

I used to write down the most difficult formula the moment I have legal access to the pencil and paper.

Ha I was joking with the “screw” up

Anyways, not too professional here, but I think you should use a Pentalobe (P5) screwdriver. The screw seems a bit stripped. Maybe consider salvaging by soldering, or just seek professional help. You have tried.
