I agree with all of you guys. I was once in the same condition asking you
guys what should I do after failing my second attempt and the hardest part
were those moments; believing on myself that I got failed.
What I did, went back and thought again and again, browse the web as well
as on group study and tried to find out what I did was wrong or not. I
still remember that I calculated all points on a paper according to the
percentage which I got from the score report. I was very near and just
needed (I thought around 3-4 points to pass my test).
I went for reread as well as booking my attempt exactly one month after. I
did not loose my concentration on the lab exam for the next attempt but I
accept that I spent quite much time for calculating the lab score at least
an hour everyday for three weeks. Cisco came back after three weeks
saying.....
Oh seems like there was a mistake and your score is above 80% and you have
passed the lab.
I could not believe on the first place that what is going on....just
imagine...thinking of the lab exam, what you did in the lab for three
weeks made myself totally sure that I think I did soemthing wrong....In
fact, the more I went for investigating the questions forced myself on the
reasoning that there were some very small minute hanky phanky, which I
didnot foresee, while attempting the lab on the first place. But anyway,
what I would say its still not a bad idea to go for a Reread only if you
are quite sure that you really were very close.....very very close. Even
if you think that you were close, still keep your patience and same pace
for the preps what you had during this attempt.
