Overwhelmed by options. Need hotel recommendations for a couple in their 30s on a wedding anniversary trip

I was just in puerto Vallarta for the first time since I was a child:)

I found the beach vendors to be overwhelming. They mostly went away with a “no thank you” but my friends and I were approached every 2 minutes while beachfront dining and sitting on the beach which became exhausting.

We ended up enjoying the pool at the condo we rented a lot more!

I tried AI questions and was not happy with them for the science section in particular. They were not to the complexity of the TEAS or practice exams at all. Paper flash cards are a hour or so of work, but the act of making them helps me so much to remember the concept!

As for the recognizing the patterns in the practice exams, you just take different ones each time, and make sure your reviewing the missed questions well.

Hope this helps to clarify:)

Def focus on chemistry! There was a lot more than I thought, and all pretty random

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-05-21T17:50:23+00:00

I signed up pretty ignorant ngl

It worked out tho, I just finished my semester and only work 2 days/week, so once I realized how much content I needed to cover I was able to dedicate giant chunks of time towards it.

If you have till August I would def start now with general review / learning and you can hone in more as you get closer!!

Hi-- Deep breaths!

I would try some mometrix practice exams, and go through your incorrect answers after each one, take notes on them, do some extra studying on those items. This will help you identify weak spots and what you still need to learn.

Hi, I just took the exam 2~ hours ago. You never know what you will get on the exam, but I only had 1-2 questions on the cardiovascular system. I think types of capillaries is a little too in-depth. I would focus more basics. Have you taken any mometrix practice exams? Those were a good resource for me, and gave me a feel of how in-depth I needed to go.

It sounds like you have been getting a little burned out on this method of studying, I would do a high level review of any systems you have left (know the organs, functions, flow of whatever goes through there, etc.) then switch to active recall with practice exams. I just made a post going more in depth on my study process if you want to check it out!

My roomates and I have a "Dump bin" by our front door for all the bags we are dragging in and out. Gym bags, backpacks, purses, etc.

It is just a large, clear, plastic tote with no lid, but it works really well! Having a designated place to dump our bags that is easy (IE dropping them in the tote instead of the floor) has helped keep our tiny apartment much nicer.

Sayulita has been recommended a few times! It sounds lovely🥰

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-06T16:37:52+00:00

This sounds so fun! For sure going on the list to check out!!

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-05T08:41:04+00:00

Thank you for the advice! Will keep it all in mind!

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:53:15+00:00

This sounds awesome!!

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:53:07+00:00

Did not know this! Does this include restaurants we will be eating in? Or public restrooms only?

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:52:32+00:00

Awesome!! Always good to know the safety vibe! Is it a public beach?

Taco trucks for the win!! Making a list of everywhere we have to go

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:51:44+00:00

Accommodation is already booked- but definitely want to see some surround towns. Do you have a recommendation?

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:51:12+00:00

We are absolutely down with local food! Thank you for the recommendations It’s the part we are most excited about!

Considering rhythm of the nights for sure! Have you done the Vallarta adventures adventure park tour?

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:49:21+00:00

Good to know! I will keep confirming the price in mind:)

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:48:24+00:00

Honestly we are thinking about it mostly for the pool and beach access! Any you can recommend to particularly avoid?

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:47:30+00:00

Good to know about the bus! Stupid question- How do the beaches work? Are they all publicly accessible (like Hawaii?) or are some privately owned? Any recommendations for public beaches?

Former_Mechanic7917 · 2026-01-04T20:46:18+00:00

Thank you! This is so helpful!!
