A Little Bit Before the Real Thing: A Student's Perspective on Preparing for an Exam

As I sit here surrounded by textbooks, notes, and empty coffee cups, I can feel the weight of impending doom bearing down on me. The real example is just a few days away, and I still have so much to do before I'm ready. But that's okay, because I've got this. Well, sort of. A practice exam seems like a good idea right about now, but I'm not sure what I need to focus on and where my weaknesses lie.

I've been staring at the same old coursework assignments for weeks, trying to make sense of them all. It's not that they're confusing in themselves, it's just that half of my work is based on coursework, and it seems like I have a little bit of it one week, and then nothing the next. It's like playing a game of musical chairs, except instead of chairs, it's coursework deadlines.

I've tried to make sense of it all by creating a schedule, but even that feels like a struggle. Maybe that's just me being lazy, or maybe I'm just really bad at time management. Either way, I know I need to focus on my strengths and work on my weaknesses if I want to do well on the exam.

Speaking of exams, I'm not sure what I'll be walking into come Tuesday. Will it be a disaster? Will I ace it? Only time will tell, but I've got to try my best. I've been preparing for weeks now, and I feel like I'm just going through the motions at this point.

But enough about exams. Let's talk about something more interesting... like power supplies! I recently picked up a new 750-watt EVGA supernova Jinxiu power supply on Black Friday, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer. The first thing I noticed when I opened the box was how solid it felt. It's got all the right features - eco mode, fully modular cables, and even a 100% Japanese capacitor.

I decided to test it out by bridging the motherboard power connector with a red and green lead, and then plugging that into a molex powered fan. To my surprise, everything worked seamlessly. The eco mode feature was particularly impressive, as I could turn off the fan when not under significant load. And when I did need to use it, the fan was incredibly quiet.

I'm really impressed with EVGA's customer service - from the packaging and case to the cables and power plug, everything feels top-notch. Maybe one day they'll release a special "exam-prep" edition of their power supplies that comes with a built-in timer and flashcards?

As I continue to prepare for my exam, I can't help but think about Christmas just around the corner. For me, Christmas is like a second semester - it's a time when my earnings really pick up, thanks in part to all of you amazing subscribers who support me through the tough months.

Speaking of which, I recently bought some new gear for the channel - including a new microphone and headphones from Scarlett Audio. It's going to make a big difference in terms of sound quality, and I'm excited to start experimenting with it soon.

If you're not already following me on Twitter, you can find me at @watandwill. And if you are, please give me some encouragement - it means the world to me! We're getting close to reaching 3000 subscribers now (I'm just 50 away!), and I couldn't have done it without all of your support.

As for my exam on Tuesday... well, that's still a mystery. Wish me luck!

sole reason you came to watch this video make sure to choose to stay tuned so I've got some more important stuff but you may leave thanks for 3000 subscribers hugely appreciate it next point where is the content what is going on so I did promise one video we can aim for one video every other day and I have kept that promise and I have aim for one video every other day it has been a week since I uploaded last hence the release of this video but don't worry there will be a pc build coming on either monday night or tuesday night i'm not sure yet i want to space things out a little bit and just to make sure i've always got a content for you rather than putting Versailles and they're not having any Tuesday is the mock exam in my mock exam day so I have a mock exam and science which is if you don't know a little bit of a practice exam before the real example of a it's important or advise for that that because actually give me a good guidance of what I then need to actually revise for and what I actually struggle with and don't understand and also what mark on should achieve a final exam way way over it make which sounds like a while away but really really isn't that also I've got that I've also the coursework that three months objects medium music and media music and god I've got I've got lon don keer media music and one of the subject which I'll probably think of him Oh media music and business sorry i can't remember myself that's how much I've got that their coursework subjects so about half of the work you get in class is coursework based so I've got I've got all of the all the coursework is seemed kind of collages and I've seem to have it all at once all the subjects into running off the same course work schedule which is a bit of a pain because it means I've got loads of course work there no cords work then loads of course work then no court work rather than having a little bit consistently all the way throughout the year but as I said there's nothing I can do about that I've got to stick to the deadlines that I'm given complete and coursework unfortunately regardless of the videos that have to go up so wish me luck is on tuesday i did buy some stuff and things on black friday that's a slip get a reference if you've never what 10 so black friday deals if I reach over to my left and pick up this really quite heavy box which you can't say i bought a 750 watt even EVGA supernova jinxiu this is 750 what gold rated power supply and I'm going to go into my pc build talk in a minute if I'm not careful but it's a very very solid power supply is very very very nice actually I've already looked inside it's a fully modular power supply tested it out by bridging the 21st for pin motherboard power connector so red a green lead to a black lee and then put that into a molex powered fan but i had lying around and it's all working it's all great it's got eco mode on which means i can turn the funds the fan off on an eye on low load or insignificant road if you will got a hundred percent Japanese capacitors body magic a line and they altra quiet one hundred and forty millimeter fan and the fan is actually very very quiet I took eco mode off and put the fan on a hundred percent rpm and it was very very very quiet especially considering a hundred percent RPM isn't something you're going to be using after all or on the odd occasion and down fifty percent rpm uranium kind of hear it and those Japanese capacitors are all right not to be called anyway by that fun when not under a significant load so it's a really really nice power supply I'm really impressed by EVGA customer experience with this power supply that right from the box to the packaging and also the case that you get to the cables and the case to get for the power plug with a Velcro that tie down a Velcro CL if you will if you don't see a video I'm not drop a like rating for that christmas is coming up very soon if you've not been doing your advent calendars then where have you been it's now the fifth of december so all the six depending on your watching this video or even after that point but and christmas is a big one for the channel because i get paid a lot more in christmas than i doing any of the month and drank January's a very hard month earnings wise do you remember all that money goes back into the channel so that's not me complaining about my and my attraction to expensive clothing which doesn't exist but and I've got my microphone coming for christmas with the scarlett 2i2 preamp the Scarlets the m25 microphone and scarlett HP 60 headphones which means i'll have to do so much less working post and it also means i'll be able to plug in guitars and basses and pianos and all sorts of different instruments through that but that's pretty much it thank you for support thanks for 3,000 subscribers thank you for always liking my videos to subscribing to those of you who are new because since this last video a thousand people will have
