Good point - Heat from gaming followed by cold trips outside can make rigid clear shells brittle and speed up those corner cracks. Make sure the case is for your exact iPhone model because even tiny mismatches preload the edges. For your budget, look for a soft TPU case with air-cushion corners and raised lips but then if you use an edge-to-edge glass protector, switch to one with a small margin so the case isn’t constantly prying against it.

Hi Joan! Yes, split your time, but keep the group narrowly focused and use solo study for the bulk of learning. With two weeks, do 45–60 minutes of solo active recall most days: close your notes, write out learning objectives, sketch pathways and definitions from memory, then check and correct. Use the two one‑hour group sessions each week to tackle the exact concepts that stall you and to run exam‑style questions under a timer. Before each group, spend 10 minutes picking two or three specific questions you cannot resolve alone and bring page or figure numbers. A simple plan that works is solo on Mon, Wed, Fri, group on Tue and Thu, and a weekend solo block to do a practice set and grade it. To keep the group on task, set a written agenda and strict time boxes: 5 minutes to choose the order, 40 minutes on problems or teach‑backs, 10 minutes to resolve disagreements with sources, and 5 minutes to recap. Assign rotating roles each meeting: a facilitator who cuts off tangents, a timekeeper, and a scribe who captures unanswered items and posts them after. Everyone arrives with exactly three questions or problem numbers and one teach‑back topic, for example explain the rate‑limiting step of glycolysis and its regulation without notes. Phones away and laptops closed unless you are the scribe, and have the timekeeper run a visible timer. Use a parking‑lot list for off‑topic items to revisit only if time remains. End by listing two action items per person, such as finding a primary source for a disputed detail or building five Anki cards, and confirm the next session's focus by 12 p.m. on meeting day.

Weigh the impact on your scholarship first since it requires full-time status and GPA. Check if the withdrawal notation affects future applications by talking to your advisor. Consider the long-term cost of delaying graduation versus a lower grade now. Factor in your current energy levels and limited local options for help.

For a two-story home like yours, range is everything, I've learned that the hard way after a couple of duds that fizzled out in the kitchen. Aim for monitors boasting 900-1000 foot ranges to cover the distance reliably, and that model with night vision will let you see clearly even in pitch black. Battery life is crucial, look for at least 20 hours to avoid being stuck near outlets all day. We actually kept it under $100 and focused on models with solid and non-WiFi connections for fewer interruptions. Yeah and it's worth reading through reviews from folks in similar houses to gauge true performance. One tip, position the base unit centrally if possible, that can boost the signal sometimes.

With your budget and space limits, tbh start by filtering for weight and fold. Under 13 to 14 pounds and a single step fold you can do one handed will make stairs bearable. Then check infant fit and safety details such as a firm five point harness, deep recline, and brakes that hold firmly and release without a fight. Try a curb pop in a store if you can to feel whether the balance is stable rather than tippy, and roll it over a rough patch to see if the wheels track straight. If the fold feels natural and you can carry it for a minute without adjusting your grip, you have something that will work for daily park walks and small hallways. Trust your hands.
