Dealing with my NT sister lowkey feels like I'm talking to her 1 year old self throwing a tantrum because she didnt get the sibling she wanted

Sometimes ngl I wish I had a different sibling.

Every time we talk about our childhood it leads to arguments with her invalidating every point I have to say and chalking it up to me being a boring person or a sociopath.

I was talking about some of my life regrets with my major and hers as well, and I brought up the fact that I hated doing piano for 12 years, she was like "well you wouldn't like anything else so its better to force you to do piano so you can get into college". And honestly all of my hobbies in my childhood were just for getting into college and I absolutely regret letting my parents force me to do piano. I told my sister I wanted to do flight school (there is a flight school 1 hr north for high schoolers that would enable me to get my PPL by graduation) and she was like "no your eyesight is bad and you dont like anything else so piano is better for you because it unlocked so many opportunities for you". And here what drives me insane: in our conversation she brings up how im a boring person for having my special interests only in photography, electronics, and airplanes and implicitly assumes im a sociopath because I dont want to get to know her because of my special interests. And thats when I realized im talking to a one-year-old in the body of a fucking mid-20s woman because I know that deep down she hates me because I wasnt that sibling who would keep her company like a NT could. I know that sometimes only children want siblings because it would get boring, but for her to get something other than she wanted and then throw a tantrum drives me up the wall.

And also heres a kicker: she says she knows me well but then when I ask her "tell me about what you know about me" she says "well I dont know you because you wouldnt talk to me".

For context when we were kids my sister used to pull pranks that made me upset because I was gullible. Thats the sibling I'm dealing with.

I regret coming home for the summer I fucking hate my emotionally abusive sister.

Prepping for an econ exam. The last 10 days ive been going thru my notes, practice problems, etc. 30 min to 1 hr per day, and yesterday I did a mock exam without mu notes, timing it for 2 hrs (actual duration of final exam). Today i dont feel too motivated to study outside of the problems I got wrong on the exam and I kinda feel like I hit a brick wall, especially because the professor said that the practice exam he gave us doesnt cover everything that MIGHT be on the real exam.

Not sure what to do, besides using an AI tool to do 10 practice problems per day to maintain my momentum.

However on the practice exam I got an 84% but would like to do as good as possible. Grades are fine but if its not an engineering/STEM-related course theres no excuse imo to not get an A in any class.

Should I rest a couple days or should I still study?
