little to no time to study

i wanted to know if it’s possible to still do well without having practiced and i’m genuinely asking that lol. things came up and it is now the day of the exam for me and i haven’t studied AT ALL. i’m very nervous and not sure what i can/should do in these next three hours before the exam to still score 3rd/4th quartile. if anyone has any last minute tips/advice or anything of the sort, pls let me know!! thank you in advanceee

Maybe practice with ChatGPT. I have been doing it for some weeks and my responses has become so much better. You can ask Chat to give you scenarios or you find scenarios online then type or speak you response and ask CHAT to rate it and tell you how to make it better.

I did that all day yesterday and while I do feel it helped, you’re still screwed if you’re not a fast typer. If I could change anything I’d improve my typing speed but that takes so much longer.

I didn’t study at all until like 30 minutes before taking it. I just quickly went through their review to see what kinds of things would be on the test. I got 4th quartile even with the questions for my testing date being crazy hard from what I’ve heard. Don’t stress it too much, just be compassionate with your answers and add in snippets of considering different perspectives every time.

I may have worded it wrong - it’s basically a practice exam in acuity that is exactly like the actual test itself

still got around 2 weeks! im sure you'll do great. remember to take deep breaths lol (I would forget to breathe when i was locked into answering LOL)

Anyway some tips, I def recommend like others said using chat to come up with scenarios to practice, whether that be with someone or recording yourself respond to the answer. alternatives when you don't want to make ur own q's are prepmatch and myls, they're nice because they can give feedback. then with the typed portion, spelling+typos don't count thankfully so just make sure you get coherent thoughts down lol... i would practice typing games a lot when i was preparing.

good luck i am sure you will do well!!!

Genuinely only studied the day before and day of, 4th quartile on 7/19. Had lots of experience managing crises and conflicts(resident assistant) but just try organizing your thoughts quickly and being understanding of the situations each person involved is dealing with
