After 6 months of trying to adapt to self-employment, sell a condo, sell a house, find a new house, keep work coming in, move into the new house, and other miscellaneous mishegas I am back on track. Or at least as much as I'll ever be. ARE Round No. 2 is on the schedule. Building Design/Materials & Methods. This week I start studying again. So far, I've just been hitting the Archiflash and Kaplan cards whilst soaking in a hot tub. If the soak doesn't put me to sleep the cards will, so at least I'm catching up on lost zeds!
Given the impending doom, er, change in exam format next spring I plan on blowing through the next 8 exams between now and November. This will give me plenty of time to re-test if (notice, dear husband, that I am now saying IF instead of WHEN) I happen to tank on any given exam. Stupid 6 month rule. One possibility regarding Lateral Forces/General Structures was suggested by a friend of mine who is also going through the ARE. Since these two exams will be combined into one in the new version, it might be worth it to leave these till last. At least if I have to take them in 4.0 I will only have to re-take one. Who knows? These two are the ones I dread and part of me would like to just get them over with.
Oh fiddle dee dee, I'll think about LF/GS tomorrow! Today I must deal with a load of work. And study, of course...
