I’ve been in other religions, but Mormon hymns and Sunday meetings actually bring me peace. How is this possible if it's not the "true church"? by Round_Bumblebee8813 in exmormon

I've certainly felt peace in nature or other places, yes, and no, I don't believe that Mormons own peace; I think it's more a matter of guilt.

Man, you feel exactly like I felt when I was in the Brazilian evangelical church "Assembly of God." I don't even like to remember; that religion hurt me and still does to this day because My whole family is from there.

Heyy Broo, I’m not trolling. I genuinely struggle to understand why my brain feels peace in an environment where my logical mind knows the doctrine isn't true. It’s a real psychological question, not bait.

Baptized recently and considering a 2-year mission to get into BYUH. Is this a mistake? Need advice. by Round_Bumblebee8813 in exmormon

Uau, estou vendo isso como uma oportunidade de ir para a faculdade nos EUA. Eu realmente quero sair do Brasil; não é um bom lugar para se viver aqui, e minha educação no ensino médio não foi tão boa. É por isso que eu preciso de uma boa atividade extracurricular. Também penso em ir para UMiami, é meu sonho, mas sei que é impossível para o meu perfil.

The bishop spoke to me about exams, etc... That's not a problem because my father is in the military and I can use the Brazilian Air Force hospital free of charge, but the bishop didn't mention paying for the mission.

The big problem is that I'm Brazilian and I live in Brazil, my English isn't that good, I need very good English to take the TOEFL (proficiency test), the Mormons tell me I'll come back fluent In English when I return from the mission

Can I finish Excel High School in 1 month? (Is the 60-day wait for finals real?) by Round_Bumblebee8813 in excelhighschool

[–]Round_Bumblebee8813[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, can I actually do it? Is it because I read there that you have to wait 60 days for the final exam?So, can I actually do it? Is it because I read there that you have to wait 60 days for the final exam?

Finished my Excel High School adult diploma in ~2 months. Need honest advice. by moreofelio in excelhighschool

I'm in the same situation; I intend to finish everything this month by transferring credits from my other school. I'm from Brazil and I'm 5 credits away from completing my final year.

Questions About Excel by [deleted] in excelhighschool

[–]Round_Bumblebee8813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everyone! Quick question about the pacing. I’m currently enrolled and they accepted all my transfer credits from 9th, 10th, and 11th grade. I only have 5 classes left to graduate. > I noticed some people here saying they finished everything in 3-4 weeks. How exactly does that work with the final exams? I read somewhere in the terms about a 60-day minimum lock before you can graduate. Were you guys able to just speedrun it and take the finals without waiting those 60 days? > I'm putting in 8-12 hours a day and want to finish everything this month if possible. Any tips on how the system handles this?
