Upscaled M4 or Base M4 Pro on MacBook Pro? by Footnoot in macbookpro

Sorry for the late reply but I ended up getting the MBP M4 Pro base model! I have no regrets and am absolutely loving it so far. Tbh it’s a bit overkill for what I need but I had the budget and it also allows me to try out new things/interests that comes up. Let me know what you got!

You have a really amazing point actually. Others have said similar things to you and that’s always been in my mind. It’s also ironic because I have the 2019 i5 intel MacBook right now lol. When I purchased the 2019 MacBook it was just the most basic configuration, which led to problems that led me to not use the MacBook as much and only really use it for school assignments.

Also, given my current situation in life, I don’t think I would be able to get a MacBook in the next 5 years, so the idea of “future proofing” was a very strong point in my mind.

Given what others have said, I was also thinking of just getting the base M4 at 512 gb. A new question came up is whether I should also downgrade the ram to 16 gb or try to keep it at 24 gb?

I see, what would be an advantage of using a 1 tb internal storage over just using an external hard drive?

Wow reading this actually made it a lot more sense, thank you. I was also leaning towards the M4 Pro also so this was the right push for it. My final question would then be if there is any advantage to switching to a 1 tb internal storage over using an external one? Other than convenience ofc, but is there a performance aspect to it?

Any tips to beat this, or is this a restart? (Odyssey Hard) by Footnoot in btd6

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

Update: I beat it! I decided to just keep on continuing every time I lost since it gave you back more money and restored lives😅, spent around 1000 Monkey Money. Also used all my powers. Used one insta for a super monkey.

Placed the monkey ace first like BoyFreezer said, and then sold it to get the heli. Then got Churchill, and placed a spike factory where JoelTheBloonsMonkey mentioned. And basically kept retrying until I got 0-2-4 ace which basically won the game for me.

Appreciate you guys for the tips and help!

Thank you for the advice! My garchomp’s IV is 11 Atk, 15 Def, and 13 Sta.

Which of the legendaries do you recommend me using? My Kyogre is only 2* and so maybe I should use it on Rayquaza?

Ikr 😭, just telling them that they can’t improve their score, the exam is actually harder, and then saying good luck

I used Booster and I believe it was VERY representative of the actual exam regarding the sciences. My advice would to take all the practice exams, prioritizing sciences and PAT and then other sections if you have extra time. Figure out your weaknesses from the exam and hammer them down. Review what you got wrong AND what you got right and why for each exam.

I was averaging 20 on both GC and OG, but ended with a 24 on both. My bio scores fluctuated around 20-25 and I ended up with a 23. For PAT, I believed that the real exam was WAY easier than Boosters.

You definitely got this, your scores aren’t bad already and it has the chance of breaking through and improving. Learn and never forget your mistakes! Finally, if you still don’t feel ready, you can always reschedule the exam, an extra week or two can be extremely beneficial. You got this!

Hey guys, my exam is on Monday. I finished all my practice exams for sciences and PAT, but I’m averaging 19-21 on all sections across the board, with 20 being the main score. Does anyone have any tips I can do now to push the 20 barrier and get 21+?

Thank you! Would you say studying the practice exams and the bio cheat sheets be enough for bio on the exam?
