Test day care for Prework round 2.

I feel like I did better than last test — A LOT better.

I didn’t finish the larger problem at the end, but I got further on it than the last one.

We’ll see how it goes. Results will be out before Saturday.

I’ll be honest as I normally am when talking to air on the internet: I may not be fast enough for the Coding Bootcamp model. I might have to be good with that.

You have to be able to test knowledge tho, so adding a time limit to problems is practical for testing purposes. It’s not practical in an actual paid project scenario.

As much I don’t like to lose, reminding myself that I’m not likely to run into a problem where I need to build something in under so many minutes helps lessen the sting. Sure, maybe something breaks, and I’ll need to debug swiftly to restore it.

I think I’d have more patience for studying and bootcamp pacing if I didn’t already have a list of applications and web apps to build.

If I do get into Sabio, I’ll likely be working on something for a company that is contracting with the school. It might relate to the things I want to build. It might not. So, I’ll be good either way.

I’m definitely not instantly repeat another round of Prework — not immediately. I’ve been neglecting my website rebuilds (3 total currently). And there’s no more time in the day. Got sleep.

Also, I have so much to build that I’m not prepared mentally to focus 100% on school — probably not even 80%.

Finally, if I’ve gone through the same material twice spread over two 4-week periods and still fail the exam, that probably means the school, pace, or structure isn’t for me🤷🏾‍♂️.

Gotta be realistic.
