Hi PR,

You're not alone in this route. I just flunked my second attempt. The
first time was the hardest. It took me a year to get my body and soul back
together again. This time, I didn't feel that bad because I know the
material well. My biggest problem is not working the lab in a structural
way.

I find suggestion from those who recently passed helpful, but they don't
work for me. I need to develop my own methodology on how to study, do the
lab and document my progress. Finally, I need to know when to give up on a
problem, move on and return later. On my second attempt, there were two
sections that I know them well. Ironically, I scored nill on both. One of
them, I didn't even see the questions. Perhaps, I skipped the question some
how. The second iron part is that I finished the lab more than an hour
early to review and even verify my result. I just don't understand how I
could have missed some questions completely. During the real lab, there are
two possible outcomes for questions. Either you know it or you don't. If
it is the former and you don't remember the required configuration task, use
univercd. It's your friend. If it is the latter and you try to use the
univercd, you won't have enough time to search. You can still use it once
you completed all other sections first.

Eventhough I failed, I am still satisfied with my progress. I would say
that I performed 100% better than my first attempt. That is enough to keep
me going back... because I know that "it can be done", like the proctor told
me when I asked him somethng. ;)
