Just popped into my head: I know you're renting, but juuuuust in case MiniRobot has trouble, sometimes a better bow can make a big difference in a so-so violin and it's a cheap but impactful upgrade if you ever decide to buy one. Also invest in good quality rosin (obvious, but a surprising number of newbies overlook this). Good luck MiniRobot! Let the rosin fly!
many thanks! as you can see, I know woodwinds. Strings are new to me so we will learn together. Grandma Robot played violin for a couple of years as a kid so maybe she can help out a little. This is good info though and I'll definitely keep it in mind.
You could F5 to blow of steam. Sample size is small, but Marylanders get the email at the same time the website is updated, so you really don't have to do it. Besides Alabama and Maryland have been tied for the first to release the last few sessions. You'll prolly be one of the first to know in the country.
I somehow preferred the email. 1 big heart attack seemed like an attractive option that many small ones every time the NCEES page is reloading.
I'm getting a small one everytime I get an email notification.
ughh it's too early for those emotions. Seriously, there's probably another week of this
