What did you drop in the last two weeks before your date?

The question

Three resources running at once and I am starting to think that is the actual problem.

Everyone says there comes a point where you stop adding and start narrowing. Nobody ever says what they cut.

So, people already through it. In the final fourteen days, what did you stop doing completely, and did you end up regretting it?

The conversation

  1. Jesse after the retakeRN, passed on the second sitting

    Dropped every video. Between the two attempts that was the single biggest change, because watching somebody else be competent had started to feel like studying and it is not.

    Kept one question bank and the rationales. No regret at all, and I would cut them earlier than two weeks if I did it again.

  2. Morgan reading offersNew grad, license in June, two offers open

    I cut the group chat. Not the people, the chat. Everybody posting their scores at midnight turned my last fortnight into a comparison exercise and none of it changed a single answer I gave.

    Content wise I stopped starting new subject areas. Anything I had not touched by then was not going to arrive in time, and chasing it cost me sleep I needed more.

  3. Sam studying lateTest date set, still in it

    Not through it yet so take this as a question rather than advice, but reading this thread I notice everybody cut something they were doing for reassurance rather than for learning.

    That is uncomfortably close to what my third resource is for.

What would you tell them?

Answer from what you have seen. It posts without your name.

A person reads every answer before it appears — usually within a few days.
