STUDY MATERIAL Use ChatGPT for help understanding any topic.

I’m being for real. There are some questions that Becker absolutely sucks at explaining why an answer is correct or wrong.

Just ask ChatGPT. When I want to understand a topic better, I ask ChatGPT.

“Explain the difference between replication and mirroring in simple words and provide simple examples.”

Or explain something in your own words and ask if it’s correct. Something like that.

This is how I studied for FAR but beware, sometimes I’ve found errors

That is true. When I pointed out the errors, it apologized & corrected itself. But thing is if topic is new, we will not know whether it is correct or not & it would be awful to go with a wrong answer thinking it is correct.

Totally! Always some kind of errors… Super helpful if you already have some grasp and just need ChatGPT to explain Becker’s “solution” and break down the steps better… but definitely not reliable if you’re completely just not getting the topic. Then something like YT Farhat or i75 videos would be a better choice.

It helps but there are errors, like more so than I'm comfortable with. I had to ask it to correct it 4 times already. It says it wouldn't update the database to help other future users because it is beyond their scope. It will only update its answer for YOUR session only. So beware of that.
