Danny,

There are more motivational sites in the World than I can list. However,
from a psychological standpoint it is quite common for people to pre-empt
failure and provide up-front excuses for doing so. Also, in my mind if you
are not confident in passing, then you should not be sitting it. Good luck,
and although I may not necessarily say they are being negative, I do think
that they are not being committed.

One of the major obstacles of the lab is the psych component - sounds like
you have that covered. Be careful not to be over-confident though, as this
quite often causes you to miss the finer points....

Cheers,

Guys,

I am taking the lab exam in July and I plan to pass on the first try. I
have buddies who feel, since the first time passing rate is like 20 percent,
they want to take it "to see what it is like" and if they pass, they pass.
I'm going there to pass an exam, not sightsee. They call it being
realistic. I call it thinking negatively. What do you guys think?

Thanks,
Danny
