I applied a month ago. Did the video interview and looked like the app was done so I’ve just been waiting?
I listed my availability as being everyday since I just finished my job that follows the school year (K-5 calendar). Not really sure when or if they ever get back to me?
Live on my own. Have to pay rent and bills. How do I tackle this test? I’ve tried in the past and it just falls apart. I’m just so tired and stretched thin.
It feels so daunting. But I know those with full time jobs (and even school too or kids too) have done well before. Please share some wisdom to this washed 28 year old non trad unc
Thanks
So I’ve been on SAVE in the past. It’s in forbearance now obviously so I’m trying to decide what to switch to now.
Leaning towards maybe PAYE? But looks like it goes away 2028 anyways?
I don’t make very much, I can only work part time because of a freak accident stroke I suffered back in 2022 (at the age of 24). Hoping to eventually get to a better place to be able to work more or even go back to school.
For me, I’m trying to keep interest from ballooning as much as possible but realistically, I would like to continue to pay $0 monthly installments. I just don’t have the money right now.
I only started working again last year (2025) and I’m only on track to make like 12-15K a year currently. Might start making more later this year as I’m job hunting but currently that’s where it’s at.
First time making a post on here so don’t know if I need to give any additional info. Please feel free to ask any questions if it helps for advice.
Thank you kindly, in advance
I feel like medium just feels like such a breeze it’s almost boring. But hard feels like I take quite a bit of hits during fights and even died a couple times in the short time I’ve started using it.
Feels like my skill fits inbetween the two. Which should I opt for?
I usually like to play games on the “normal” or “balanced” difficulty. I want the blend of light challenge but without having to do a lot of dying and repeating parts. Balance of story emphasis but mild challenge to keep me engaged.
I currently have GoT set to Medium bc I figure that’s the best bet since it’s described as medium and balanced. “Balanced” is the big word I look for in difficulty settings. I like a balanced experience between story and combat.
However, I’m still in act 1 but it feels like the game is starting to get maybe too easy? I’ve done a fair bit of side content so maybe it’s a power scaling thing, but I feel like enemies too often watch me fight them one on one and are generally just very passive.
I don’t really care for turning enemies into damage sponges though and I also don’t want to make upgrades and mechanics irrelevant either, which I’ve read are problems in Hard and Lethal, respectively. Lethal might be cool down the road but for a first play through it seems to take away too many layers of mechanics and upgrades since everything becomes high damage and low defense. What I really want is just for enemies to attack me more and not just stand around so much watching.
Will enemies get harder and more aggressive as the game progresses? Should I leave it on medium and see how medium continues to scale as I progress through the story?
Does Hard actually make the AI behave substantially differently? Will they attack more aggressively? Does the damage sponge thing become a problem as the game scales up as you progress? I don’t want to deal with sponges dragging out fights to a point that it becomes boring in its own right.
Any insight into difficulty settings is greatly appreciated. But prob leaning away from Lethal just cuz I don’t want to negate upgrades and progression this play through. Thank you.
Relatively new to the game.
I’ve had it where a counter attack after a perfect parry (doing the parry last second and then counterattacking right after) only does stager damage and then I’ve had other times where it takes away from both bars above the enemy’s head. What dictates whether health damage is taken or if it’s only stagger damage when counterattacking?
Thanks
Okay so I’m still learning the game. Only a couple hours in.
So I have the stone and water stances so far. I see stone is better for staggering swordsmen and water is better for staggering shield men.
My question however is, how does the “hold triangle” attacks play into this mechanic? Does the piercing strike and flurry strike also do bonus stagger damage for their properly matched respective enemy types?
Or does the bonus stager damage only apply for the “tap triangle” attacks ie shield breaker and sword breaker? Obv the names of these attacks very much give away their purpose.
I’ve seen a lot of bad things about its. Currently looking for some part time work over the summer while I grind the MCAT. I need clinical experience, all of mine is from years ago before I became non trad.
Should I steer clear even then?
I’m doing a NG+ run rn. If I restart the chapter via “chapters”, is that going to not count as a singular continuous playthrough anymore?
So I did a bunch of pre med stuff when I was in college and after I graduated too.
Research (700 hours), hands on clinical experience (270 hours), volunteering (200 hours), shadowing (70 hours).
But all of these were back in 2020 or earlier. After I graduated, I had a stroke, and was out of commission for a few years.
Does all that time and effort not count anymore? Or can I still use it?
Do I need to reach out to the people again I was going to list for these experiences as the contacts? What if I can’t get in touch with them anymore?
And what about LOR? Do those expire? Should I get updated ones? What if they don’t remember me or I can’t get in contact with them anymore?
Thanks in advance
