Starting to think gmat prep is less about intelligence and more about not losing your mind

I had this idea that if I just studied hard for a couple months I'd be fine. Nope. GMAT prep has basically turned into me staring at the same question for 15 minutes after work while wondering why my brain suddenly forgot middle school math.

And what nobody tells you is how weirdly emotional this whole thing gets. Like one good mock score and suddenly I'm convinced I'm getting into a top mba program. One bad section and I'm on reddit searching. Am I too dumb for the gmat at 1am.

Also kinda hate how every GMAT study plan online looks like it was made for people with unlimited free time. I saw one that said study 4 hours every weekday. Brother i am trying to survive my job first.

How are normal people actually balancing this stuff?

Ants keep coming back no matter what I try is professional treatment the only real fix?

I never thought ants would become this annoying, but over the last few weeks it is turned into a constant problem. At first it was just a couple near the kitchen sink so I cleaned everything used spray and figured it would disappear.

Instead they kept showing up in different spots around the house. I tried bait traps vinega , sealing tiny openings and deep cleaning almost every night. It would seem better for a few days and then suddenly I’d notice another trail somewhere else.

The frustrating part is that it never feels completely solved, just temporarily quieter.

One of my neighbors mentioned they dealt with the exact same thing before eventually calling AMPM Exterminators because the issue apparently wasn’t just the ants you can see. They said the colony and entry points were deeper around the property than they realized.

Now I am honestly wondering if DIY solutions ever fully work once it gets to this point or if professional treatment is usually the only thing that actually fixes it long term.

For people who’ve dealt with recurring ant problems seriously, what finally worked for you?

Interesting little learn and earn site I tried recently

Recently started trying an app called Lingoodie and honestly it’s a pretty interesting idea. Instead of just learning languages for fun, you also earn small rewards for completing lessons and staying active.

It’s definitely not huge money, but I already tested a payout and it worked. The minimum withdrawal is only $0.05 and they pay through Revolut, so it was easy to try without spending weeks grinding first.

I also kind of like that it feels more productive than doing random surveys all day since you’re at least learning something useful while earning a bit on the side.

Best cash back apps in 2026 what are people using right now?

I feel like I’ve tried a few different cash back apps over time but always end up going back to the same couple that seem to work. Lately it feels like the rewards are slower though, not sure if it just me or if things have changed. But it’s quite frustrating. Curious what people are using now and what, if anything, still feels worth it to you.

looking for generative ai course recommendations

Looking for a good generative / agentic ai course and trying to figure out what’s actually worth paying for. My main goal is to be able to prove Ive done more than youtube tutorials. Would like to be able to make something useful enough that I could maybe even get my employer to reimburse it. Pretty sure theyll cover the Udacity agentic ai nanodegree and the Udemy ai engineer agentic track. Has anyone gone through either of these?

One of the first choices you'll encounter when ordering or producing DTF transfers is whether to go hot peel or cold peel, and it's a distinction that has real implications for your workflow and your results. The peel timing affects how the adhesive sets and how the finished transfer looks and feels on the garment, so it's not just a personal preference thing. Understanding the trade-offs between the two helps you make the right call for your specific application.
