It’s not that the load is heavy and all, it’s just time is constant and managing it isn’t for all of us. We just prioritize things. Don’t know if it’s applicable to all, but it feels like there’s a “test your knowledge cool down”.
While we were in school, it wasn’t that hard. We’d learn, but we weren’t tested immediately afterward. If we were, it be in the form of labreps, projects and the like that didn’t really involve having to absorb every word. Not sure if this makes sense

There aren’t a lot of people who see this, but a little break, or a little change would be really nice. Something we can work on is better than something that tests our word-retaining knowledge.
