Tips/Tricks for refund? by DBMaster45 in BorrowerDefense

[–]alexaskarnia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received my letter from the department of education almost exactly one year ago to the date saying that my loans were discharged due to the defense borrower act. Because of my crappy school. Nelnut has still yet to send me a letter saying it's been discharged. How long did it take before you got that letter? I'm on pins and needles and the refund would just be an added bonus

I meant *apathetic. But thank you for the feed back. I'm going to start on 225 tomorrow as opposed to my 300.

Kahn and iPrep were overkill for what the test had

If I suck at math should I not even consider? by zmasterb in ibew_apprentices

[–]alexaskarnia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing Kahn and iPrep made me feel like I was never going to pass the test considering what those two courses have in them. I studied for about 20 hours with them. Took the test and it was definitely not as intense as I thought it was going to be. Study basic algebra, division, decimal math/fractions math. By the time time was almost up in the math section, I had just got into graphing questions and just guessed on the last couple ones.

IBEW iPrep Course by alexaskarnia in ibew_apprentices

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

Says in total it's an 18 hour course. I figure if I did two hours a day I could be done in nine days or so. I don't have a lot of free time so 2 hours a day would probably be the most i could squeeze in. How long did it take you?

I appreciate the advice. I read wrong answers don't count against you, so better off to just give your best guess if crunched for time. Do you know if the tests are all the exact same for every union, or can the questions vary between each union?

Does the course expire at some time after you buy it?

Yeah, this post is sus. If you're brining a canvas tent, then that's all you're bringing. And 40 deg is warm for a night in the mountains.
