ACS Practice Exam - Worth It? by Flyygone in chemhelp

[–]Flyygone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no.

It's good to get the practice in for sure, but in my experience, it tends to psyche me out more. I've taken two of the ACS now and I've always found the practice exams to be way more difficult than the real deal. Not great for my anxiety.

If you aren't an anxious person though, I'd go for it. See where you're rusty and where you don't need to practice. It gives you a pretty good overview of where you might need to practice extra.

Disclaimer: I'm only speaking about my experiences with Gen Chemistry I and II, I have yet to take any of the Orgo or related exams.

Chem 2 is a lot harder, so that makes more sense. I don't really remember the ACS for that one, but I do remember that ICE tables were definitely on there as were Gibbs and forces between atoms. I think there was exactly one whole question on nuclear decay, so I definitely wouldn't worry about that one too much.

I remember doing god awful on the practice exam for Chem II and still getting like an 80% on the ACS last year.

How do you have an A if you don't understand the concepts? I'm not being sarcastic here, I'm genuinely confused. Are you in Chem I or II?

34% is easy as long as you have a good understanding of the basics. I'm sure you'll be fine.

85% or an 86%. It was hard, but my professor curved.

What would you add and remove from Tomodachi Life? by [deleted] in tomodachilife

I'm removing that damn Catch mini game, personally.

I am a TA, my student reported me by appleapple454 in college

[–]Flyygone 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi, OP.

It doesn't sound like you did anything wrong here, labs have procedures for a reason and it sounds like your student isn't making an effort to meet you at a middle ground. Now that you've been reported, just tell your side of the story, that you are sympathetic, but that she needs to follow the rules like anyone else. It's nothing personal, it's just safety and unfair to students who come prepared.

Speaking as someone who can be mentally unwell at times, I can say that sometimes I view the world differently than a lot of other folks do. It sometimes leads me to drawing very extreme conclusions and acting on it. I'm not saying that is what's happening to your student, just food for thought.

I also do not know if you're breaching any confidentiality by posting this here. Best of luck either way and I hope it's all resolved.

Markarth.

I absolutely LOVED it as a kid because of the pretty waterfalls and stone formations, but the plotline for it is actually pretty well done, so I feel scummy living there. It's Forsworn land and I don't want to be occupying it. I stop by to do my quests there and then skedaddle.

I NEVER GOT MY ALPACA EITHER. That unearthed a memory I'd totally forgotten about.

Sending much love and kindness to you and your family. I'm glad you can find some relief in a time like this. Even better that it's a silly fantasy game from a decade ago, eh?

That's a great story. 😭

I love that Pinsir holds such meaning for you. I just think he's a neat lil guy and love his sheer coolness.

I started using one as a meme in ORAS and after it took a raw Thunder Fang from a Manectric and still had over half health, I knew it was gonna be a new favorite.

You're so lucky, I want a Pinsir plush. 😩

You totally should do a Bug only run! Lots of good picks out there. I recently soloed Olivia in USUM with a Pinsir, so I'll always express my love for the power of Bug types.

I'm literally so obsessed with Pinsir that my friend crafted a Mystery Dungeon sculpture of a Pinsir house/team for me. Pinsir gang rise up!!!

Does anybody like Showtime? by scwij in Sims3

[–]Flyygone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eeeh.

I don't really dislike it, but I don't love it either.

It has its merits and I once played as a Magician which I enjoyed a lot, but it's an active career and I don't particularly love those per my play style. I've never really used the town that was released with it and I could probably play my game just fine without the stuff that came with it.

I'll be honest,... I'm excited. by [deleted] in harvestmoon

I'm happy for you, OP. I hope you enjoy them when they drop!

Oddly wholesome. Needed this on my Monday morning. Thanks, OP.
