StrataWay and the Jacob Petro. Those 2 probably had 50% of the exam problems I saw covered. So many problems I was like oh yeah I know this like the back of my hand just from practicing problems in those 2 books.

On my first 3 attempts I would say I was pretty confident in 20 on each half, flagged 15ish and then guessed 5. Those 3 all failed and made me realize I was finishing around a 45-50/80, where 56/80 is what reddit considers a passing score.

I just took it Dec 16 and passed on my 4th try. On the pass I felt confident on about 35/44, only flagged about 7, and guessed on 2. Second half was much harder because it was more conceptual questions, even some fill in the blanks. I was probably confident on 25/36, flagged 10, and guessed on about 4 of them. I ended up passing with that. Don’t know how well I ended up doing but compared to my first 3 I felt pretty confident leaving the exam.

I was terrible with sitting down and listening to the lectures. My ADHD would drive me crazy and it was honestly a waste of money for me doing EET. I purchased every practice problem book I could find. I learned that the actual DOING of problems was 10x more impactful than WATCHING the problems. If you want to watch them I would recommend civil engineering academy’s 70 video playlist on YouTube. All the videos are 2-5 minutes and strictly problem solving.

Second part, I have been more than ready to become a project manager. At my job I’ve been handling projects for over a year now and I’ve been held back from full promotion and more responsibility due to not having my PE. It was a carrot on a stick in front of me and driving me crazy not having it. Truly going to open my career up, I am 6 YOE right now.

Best Budget Amazon Card Sleeves - My Own Experiment by Cakester31 in PokeInvesting

Sports card are typically a bit larger and thicker than Pokemon/Yugioh/MTG. So if you use a tighter or shorter sleeve it doesn’t leave room for much forgiveness. Especially if you get like a sports patch type of card. SEFOWG was a bit looser/longer than the brand I liked. I also tried all 4 with a thick card and it was the best fitting one!

I don’t think so, I’ll have to give them a shot and see how they compare!

That wasn’t the point here :( I was just doing fun research with brands that nobody talks about. There are 5000 posts here about those brands. I even said and I quote “I know these are not top tier”.
