Hi Long:
I know two different guys who were in a similar
situation like yourself. Both of them did re-check and
one guy Passed and the other still failed. The guy who
passed had 40% (like you) and the person who still
failed had 79%. Can you believe it? The person who
passed got extra 40 % and actually Passed; in his
case, according to him, he was using prefix-list
everywhere and was failed initially. The person who
had 79% initially could not get an extra 1% to pass.
Bottom line is if you go over your exam carefully and
honestly yourself and still confident enough that you
passed, then $250 is worthwhile to spend.
