  12. How do you do a study group?

    This is exactly what I was going to ask, lol. I'm not one to take the lead & form a group myself. I'd like to try one. How do you know who to study with when you're all new & just beginning?...

    Your post made me smile. I am off put by the majority of the comments here, though. There's always going to be negative people, I guess, but every time I read things like those, I wonder if I really...
