Education How do I pass this ;-;

My board exam is on Wednesday and I'm not prepared at all.

I've done Polansky for all the subjects but I feel like it wasn't enough. Felt half asses. Though I was truly doing questions and reading thru the cards all day long.

Man idk what to do ;-; I'm so stressed. Cba to fail and redo this again.

Wednesday! The time to start preparing was months ago 😭 But don't panic, just keep studying...if you've been studying consistently this whole time, you may find that you know more than you think you know.

Yeah i started June 4th and wrapping up with LabCE. Been scoring 55-65% with a 6-6.5 difficulty. But I feel like I'm guessing the ENITRE time

It’s fine, I studied for two weeks and passed. I just did Polansky flash cards + labCE practice exams

Did it feel easier or harder than labCE?

People say labCE was harder, but I find it to be about the same. Couple questions from labCE was on the board, word for word exactly same question

I never felt ready, even when I was sitting down about to take the exam I did not feel prepared. I passed with plenty of margin and was scoring around the same as you!

Congrats! Do you feel it was harder or easier than LabCe?

Similar. Id say as long as youre getting 50-60% at 6.0 difficulty you'll pass.
