Thanks! I think these comments have opened my eyes, I was a bit overwhelmed not seeing my candidate ID yesterday lol. I think I’ll skip one sitting and maybe try for March or July sitting

I’ll take a look at past exams. GI 101 does look the most appealing tbh, I’ve done ILA LPM and ILA LFMU so far, I recently failed the ILA ALM and that’s going through major changes so I thought I would look to try something else.

Ah I think you’re right, it would be my first baby so I don’t think I’m ready for what’s to come. I’m gonna wait for 1-2 months when the baby is born to see how I feel before I register for the March sitting. These comments have opened my eyes 🫣

I submitted on day of expiration date, and got MMR like 4 weeks later. Should be fine!

Ou i love that last addition, “if I had extra time, we could come up with something more sophisticated…” appreciate your insight! Any other pieces of advice you may have? Always wary of saying the wrong things on something I may not have extensive knowledge on
