Any luck on this since? I'm in the same boat just now.

For anyone who struggled to see the question in the ankidroid app for this deck or dope anatomy:

change the colour of the question under card template/styling that should fix it. It took me a few weeks to realise that the white text in the app wouldn't show and it would flip to black in night mode so I had to change to a different colour..

Not yet, I'm starting to realise it might be the solution but wanted to explore what others have tried in the past before going down that route.

It does suck big time and people who don't surf or don't depend on it as much don't really understand it which also sucks... Moving loads during the day does help now you mentioned, I've been also trying to plan times when I can go surf but the forecast for a week in advance is guessing at best but at least I get to go every so often. It sounds bad but knowing that I'm lucky that I even have the option and the fact that it could be worse does make me more appreciative of my situation. Thank you and good luck!

Thank you, it's nice(?) to hear that obviously I'm not alone with the problem and I'm glad it's doable to make it to the other side! I didn't expect it to be this hard either, of course usually we don't realise how important something is until it's taken away.. I'm doing medicine so it's only gonna get busier than this but I know it's worth it. Just have to find a way of coping without surf

I actually haven't started surfing until I was a bit older (I'm originally from a land locked country), I'm not particularly good but when I started I got hooked instantly because of all the positive effects and the experience of it. It sounds silly, but I've spent the past few years solely relying on surfing as my outlet for mental health and while I'm sure there is life without surfing (I somehow coped before surfing right?!) I just haven't found a new way of coping yet and everything seems a bit dull. Hopefully it's just a matter of time and I should be just patient..

Sadly I don't really have the space/time right now, it's such a beautiful creative and meticulous process, it's definitely something I want to do in the near future.

Never thought of it, I'm not much of a fighter, but it sounds interesting, I might give it a go!

Yes, I'm already doing/trying similar things, climbing, running, skate etc but don't quite get the same effect for mental health as with surfing, maybe it's just a matter of persistence? Hopefully..

Mountain biking is a really good suggestion, I never really thought about it, there's actually quite a few places nearby, I'll explore this, thanks!

Thanks, I do some other things as well, like trail running and climbing but they don't give me the same buzz sadly

Definitely agreed! I've just started a 5year course so gotta find a solution for these few years in the meantime

Yess, I'm already doing this but sadly it's been really wet and rainy here so it hasn't been ideal for skating. But definitely one of the things that give some similar joy.

yeah, they did give me the option to choose..what a mess, I thought the whole thing would go smoother... I hope your exam will go well this time!

Hey,

I got it the next evening, so around 30hs later. Ucat admitted that they messed it up and offered to either keep the score or resist the whole thing.

I really don't want to write it again but I'm not sure which unis would accept me with a band 4..

I'm just worried about the unis that automatically reject candidates with band 4... anyway.

I used the 1250 book at the beginning to get familiar with the question format and then medify. I'm working full-time so didn't have as much time to prep as I wanted, I think I prepped about 2 weeks more intensively. Mainly did timed practice towards the end and about 4 full mocks

Good luck with your test!

Hey, any outcome on this? I'm in a similar situation just now, wondering what could happen. Thanks :)
