A beginner in cybersecurity who has been using TryHackMe for about a month is questioning whether their learning approach is normal. Currently working on the Web Fundamentals path and the Burp Suite Repeater room, they describe struggling to independently write correct syntax or build requests despite understanding the theoretical goals. The user frequently needs to look up solutions or seek help and expresses concern about whether this reliance on external assistance indicates ineffective learning. They emphasize that they review and understand solutions afterward rather than just copying them, but remain uncertain if this is a typical experience at their stage of learning.
