I want to say that everybody goes through this (although I'm sure somebody
will try to prove how smart they are by denying it... :)). What Caslow
recommends is keeping a journal of your progress so you can easily see what
things have blocked your progress. I like to create a flashcard for
everything that kicked my butt so I can review them when I have a few
minutes of downtime.
The main thing is to never make the same mistake or have the same problem
twice. If something stops you once, make sure you know that particular
"gotcha" the next time it comes up. Believe it or not, there are only a
limited number of mistakes to be made - if you only make each one once, you
will find yourself at the end of the list eventually...
Please consider this the contribution of my $.02
Hope that helps...

Subject: OT: Preparation Frustration
I'm sorry, this is a little off topic but if I don't ask I'm going to go
insane. It seems I get stuck on a least a little part of almost every single
lab I do. Sometimes small, sometimes a lot (BGP). I end up having to look at
a piece of the solution almost always to complete what I need to do. And
since each section is graded all or nothing, missing one line could blow
it.My question is, does anyone else have to resort to this? I'm not
scheduled to take the lab until Nov. 1st, but I'm already thinking about
rescheduling it.
Any comments to let me know that I'm not the only one that gets totally
stuck would be appreciated by my self-esteem.
Thanks,
Bill Mckenzie
