Good luck to everyone taking it tomorrow, honestly, I don't even know if I'll even pass but I am hoping for the best. If I fail I can retake it, altho I don't truly want to do that.

[MeganClarkMusic]

taking it tomorrow ... i was awful at the free response on the practice LMAO

[fantiscious]

This is a REALLY helpful trick for questions w/ arrays: Look at ur left palm, and think of your hand as an array, with your fingers as the elements of it (thumb has index 0, pinky has index 4). Whatever array question it is, u can now use ur hand to visualize an example of an array stated.

This really helped me with methods with an array as a formal parameter, and u can use it on arraylists too :D

[testmonkey]
