For those who have applied for accommodations (physical and/or time), how long did it take you to hear back? Do you hear back about your accommodations separately from your exam application? From Indiana, but curious how this is handled in general.
While we’re in this weird interim stage of UBE and NextGen, I just wanted to double check that the MBE is still on paper? Essays come in booklet and you can type or write?
Anyone else feeling really flat, losing interest in all of their regular hobbies? This nailed it pretty well for me -
“The type of energy bar prep consumes is often the same pool you use for joy, motivation, exercise, hobbies, riding, socializing, and emotional regulation. So people often notice:
- loss of interest in things they normally love
- feeling “flat” or emotionally blunted
- inability to initiate enjoyable activities
- exhaustion before even starting something fun
- feeling guilty while resting
- needing huge recovery periods after studying
It doesn’t necessarily mean you’re lazy, weak, depressed, or doing bar prep ‘wrong.’ It’s often cognitive and emotional depletion.”
I know it’s only through July (well, I’m a repeat taker, that phrase only gets me so far), but man, I’m going on vacation and don’t even think I’ll enjoy it. I’d cancel it if I could. I’d rather stay in my little bar routine, slow and steady.
Anyone else feeling like a bar robot? What helps, if anything?
