I wouldn't do it. I know several people that asked for a re-read and still
got a fail. Besides all of that, Cisco even tells people that it is not
worth it on their website. When cisco gives the percentage of re-read that
changed from fail to pass, and it's less than 1%... I think they are
saying... "We'll take your money, but you might just want to put that
towards your next attempt".

Plus, In my exam... I had two typos... and a broken backbone router... and
they won't even admit to it anymore... even when I was at the exam the
protocor admitted to a typo... Their response was... "well... we only give
re-sits on exams when hardware fails and you are unable to finish the exam.
Since the typo was resolved during the exam, there is no issue."

Since I didn't want to piss of the proctors anymore... I just left it at
that. I do want to pass one day... I feel if I make them mad they will just
fail me everytime... It's like that Seinfeld episode... where Elaine pissed
off the doctors and then no doctor... not even the Vet would see her.

so yeah... I hope that helps.
