Hi group
i am currently doing my military service here in switzerland, thant's why i
didn't write about my first try in brussels. I was there on the 15. Nov with
Robert and Dario and with two other swiss guys. we all failed!!!
as robert said. i didn't pass because of a few points and i was very
confident about the things i did. i did a big mistake in the beginning because
i
didn't read the docu well enough, so i lost more than one hour. so, make shure
you read everything very vell and ask the proctor about every detail you're
not shure.
although my mistake i had more than one hour left to check and finish
things.
i think the exam is doable, but you have to look very carefully at the
details!!
i'll try again in january 2002.
regards (from the army) dave
