Hey yall, hope everyones studying is going well.

I was just wondering if anyone knew for sure which conversions we should be familiar with for QR. I know I've heard that we should have Celsius to Fahrenheit memorized but should we know things like inches to meter, or yards/feet in a mile, grams to pounds.. etc.

I'll memorize them all if necessary, I just didn't know if anyone knew for sure what is expected of us.
 
Celsius to Fahrenheit is a must. (just remember one, you can derive Fahrenheit to Celsius algebraically.) Remember at times, they GIVE you a conversion factor. I had a friend which had a conversion problem in which they told him 5280 ft are in a mile.

Know your standard conversions (you would be surprised how many people don't know these🙂

1 lb = 16 oz
2 pints = 1 quart
4 quarts = 1 gallon
3 ft = 1 yard
12 in = 1 ft

Notable conversions you should know:

Celsius to Fahrenheit
Celsius to Kelvin
1 in = 2.56cm
1 kg = 2.2 lb
1 mile = 1.6 km

I'm always used 2.54cm = 1 inch. Do you think the answer choices will be so so specific that .02 cm will be a big deal?
 
*2.54 = 1 inch. typo. my bad. Will they be 0.02 specific? hell no. There will be some questions you can probably do in your head and approximate them. Remember, the math isn't "hard" to do. What makes it difficult is doing it in the time they give you.
 
Yeah, I did Bootcamp test 2, and ended up with a 21 and leaving 5 questions unanswered. You gotta be quick!
