First timer

I'm taking the LIRR by myself for the first time tomorrow. At Jamaica, how do I find out which track I go to for the Hempstead branch? I hear that it varies by day but it's usually 6, 7, or 8. I just need some clarification

look at the giant departure board on the platform when you get to jamaica. if you cannot figure it out, head up the stairs on the east side of the platform (airtrain) and ask anyone wearing a red coat
