GT said something about morning sex, i asked whether GT is m/f, ze said open sexuality, i asked if gender is more appropro

all in all i think im not being politically correct about asking whether sum1 is m/f
So, LLH, in answer to your question: Yes.

ETA: Also, I'm male.
Hahaha

The only problem I have is that I can't keep up with all of you :|

GreenTea are you single? I have someone on my mind for you :P

On it!

PT65, got rocked by the RC section on Sunday. I really want to take it again tonight, just to see if I can ace it. (Have not thoroughly reviewed yet.)

Do you think that would be a waste of time? Is it better to just review and move on to new material?

Ambiguous.
do u mean androgynous?

on a related note, does anyone believe that asexuality is a real thing?
No, I mean that my sexuality is open to interpretation.
M/f is legit. Gender is more of a sliding scale that is open to interpretation I think. But if bill is asking about bio m/f then that should essentially have a distinct answer.

This is excellent advice, THANK YOU! I'm going to go over PT 47 later today, and focus on only those questions where I got wrong, and look for where I went wrong on each answer.

Any advice on this:

For LR I'll usually go 14/15 on the first 15 questions - and I'll breeze by them. I'm timing myself in terms of the first 15, and I did them in just over 12 minutes yesterday. Is this just a function of me trying to breeze through the questions and missing something obvious?
I have to give you a very unsatisfying "it depends" here.

15 q's in 15 min is VERY fast. Although LR usually goes from easy to hard through a section, they always put a nasty question or two in the teens. The way to see this is by looking at when you miss an early question was it because it was hard or was it because you made a careless error. If you are consistently missing for careless reasons early in the section, consider altering your timing strategies so that you are more careful up front. Careless mistakes are your ENEMY. You don't even have to finish the sections to get a 180. Better to get correct the things you attempt that you are good enough to get right. Some of the really hard questions are poorly written, so focus on always nailing the easy/moderate and good elimination on the tough questions. This was helpful in my experience at least.
This. I think 10 in 10 is much more reasonable. When I've been doing 10 in 10, I've had plenty of time remaining. I sorta "rush" through the first 10 but just because they are usually straight forward (the first 7 or 8 are at least). Then, I really buckle down after that

I just timed myself on the last 10 q's of a section and it took 13 min. But that included two parallel reasoning.

Basically idk if I could do 10 in 10 anywhere in the last half of the section

Edit: I could have also included baseballs post in that quote

Only one way to find out.

Experiment: Abstain, starting today, until I take PT66 on Saturday. Spend Saturday night with the SO, and then take PT67 on Sunday. Compare.
