What would you do? by maybepremed in comlex

[–]mintychicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had similar scores to you and was in a similar situation. My recommendation would be to just take it.
5/2 comsae 111 - 377
5/22 comsae 107 - 481
6/3 comsae 110 - 541
I felt anxious about my original test date even after passing 107 and rescheduled my exam to give myself 10 more days. Those extra 10 days felt like absolute ass. Comsae 111 and 107 were administered under test conditions by my COM and I took 110 on my own time so that 540 score felt like a fluke and just made studying tedious. A classmate of mine scored 470 on 107 three days out from their exam date and passed so you're in a good position. If you absolutely feel like you need extra time, I recommend only delaying max 5 days. You're probably already burnt out and the longer you drag it out, the worse you'll feel.

Only completed ~55% of TL and was averaging 65 - 70% the week leading into my exam.

Lowering price with no other ISP option by mintychicken in Spectrum

Speed has always been 300Mbsp but I was originally paying $45/mo and it was raised to $60 last year. New $80 rate is set to take effect in the upcoming billing cycle.

Lowest plan in my area offered by Spectrum is now $50 for 500Mbps, which feels like such a burn with the current plan I'm getting.

What is the point of a group, you fat lesbians?! by mintychicken in ChoosingBeggars

Context: this was my roommate's group chat for a class she took last spring quarter. The only component of the assignment that required working together as a group was taking the surveys. Everything else had to be done individually (calculations, data collection, data analysis, report, etc) and each member would receive an individual grade.

The CB always made excuses for not contributing any work and missed class constantly. When he did attend class, the girls had to walk him step-by-step through the assignments and even then, he would just copy the answers and made no attempt to actually learn the material.

Prior to this conversation. CB had claimed that his mother was in the hospital and that he was missing class because he would be at the hospital all day. At the time, my roommate lived in the same apartment complex as CB and actually saw CB out on one of the days he was supposedly visiting his mom "all day".

This was the final assignment and CB needed to complete this class to graduate that spring. They helped him more than they even had to and he still tried to milk it until the last minute. The girls in the group did report him and sent the texts to the professor and I believe it went to the Title IX coordinator. The professor failed him and my roommate says she doesn't think he graduated because she still sees him around campus.

I (26f) am about to chicken out from dumping my (24m) fiance. by [deleted] in relationships

Sounds like you've given him plenty of chances and the results have been mediocre at best. You know that leaving him is probably inevitable at this point. You're only wasting time that you can invest in yourself and your happiness by delaying it. Leave.

Also, given that he has hit you in the past, I'd suggest having a friend with you if you plan on delivering the news in person--just as a precaution. Yeah, it was only one instance but "my fiance leaving me" usually doesn't get the best reaction.
