Over 20 flights have been cancelled at Newark, most of them, United.

I truly don't know what to do, I've been searching all over united airlines, airports, and other airlines to find tickets to Geneva but I can't find anything.

The problem is, I'm not stuck in Newark - my mom is. She's flying out for my graduation and is stuck and I truly don't know what to do. My graduation is Friday and she was supposed to get in Thursday morning which, clearly, had fallen through.

I'm not asking to give up tickets or anything, but I am asking for help. Please, I'm not sure what to do, and that's why I've come here, I don't know if it's the correct subreddit but I'm just trying to get any sort of advice. Is there anything I even can do? I've found some flights at other airports and different airlines within the star alliance members, can that help?

I'm so lost and just want my mom to see me graduate. She's the only close family member that can afford and is in good enough health to travel to see my graduation. I don't have anyone else but her.

Edit: No, I'm not asking for tickets. I don't know where people translated the "I'm not asking for tickets" into a "I'm asking for people to give up their tickets". My mom was able to get on another flight but she won't be able to make my graduation at all. Graduation is a very important thing for me and I don't understand some people's insensitivity in the comments, I just wanted my mom, she's all I have. Thank you to those who have been kind enough to give other suggestions without making me feel like an idiot or childish for just trying to find a solution. I appreciate you guys.

I've been studying History nonstop for the past couple days. I feel like absolutely nothing is sticking with me. I've created timelines, I've made my poor bf sit through and listen while I explain the entire Cold War, Soviet Union, and Pol Pot from my notes, and then I've gone and tried to actively recall them in my notes.

I wrote in black pen what I knew and blue what I didn't, and I feel like everything was in blue. Nothing is sticking with me and it's worrying me sm. My IB predicted is a 6, and frankly, I can only think of one time where I've gotten below a 6 in a History mock exam or essay. I feel like I have to hit the 6, but like I feel like everything I've learned in the past two years has absolutely been erased.

What studying works for you?? It's so hard for me to be motivated to study, and what keeps me going is seeing my studying pay off, but I'm at a point where I can't and I'm procrastinating revision an hour before my final exam.
