Thanks. Trying to figure out if I should go for general now or wait a bit. At least with testing online there is always a session you can sign up for.
From my understanding there is some overlap between Technical and General so it would be good to take it sooner than later, while the info is still fresh in your mind. At least that is what I was told...

I got
My Tech back in February... and was ready to
upgrade in March... but due to the Pandemic I had to wait until May. That being said, by May, I gad a great understanding for most of the stuff covered in the exam. Right now I’m studying for my Extra.

Go for your general while you have good study habits, general opens up a lot more FZ to use

I agree, take it sooner than later.
I took Tech and General at the same time, thought I was done. After 4yrs I decided to upgrade to Extra. In that time I had learned things that helped me with the Extra test.

But I see your call was a family member's call so that's cool that you got it.
