I agree with Scott here totally!

I am also sorry if someone has pointed this out - I have not bothered to
read this entire thread - but I did want to add this point....

If you are approaching this exam with the following thoughts - please
understand your chances of passing are considerably slim....

"This test is unfair."

"This test cannot be passed."

"I hate these proctors."

Etc.

I had lost points in the past due to poor grammar - or who knows - maybe
even incorrect grading. I just refused to allow this to prevent me from
achieving my goal. And a key point to achieving the goal was to
constantly be of the mind set of "I will pass this test."

P.S. I paid out of pocket for the expenses associated with the exam. I
can only imagine that this mindset is even easier for those lucky enough
to have someone else paying the bill.

So allow me to state it in a different way... Sitting here and
complaining
back and forth does NOT solve the problem.

Yeah, it doesn't help for someone to tell you to study more, because
everyone knows that! But instead of commisserating with others around
here,
each and every one of you who has had mathematical or other difficulties
needs to TELL CISCO ABOUT IT!

If nobody says anything, they (upper management) may not know there are
flaws in the system. If many people start (professionally) complaining
about similar experiences, someone will say "There must be a problem,
let's
explore this."

If nobody is willing to take this on, just what kind of expectation can
you
have of anything getting better?

Yes, if all the frequency of this stuff occurring is increasing, it
sucks.
Sucks bigtime. But if nobody expresses opinions about this to those who
matter and have a stake in making things better, then it doesn't serve
any
purpose other than to make ourselves feel a little better that we have
found
other people in similar situations.

Whether it's the Assessor or the real lab or someone's practice labs,
sometimes sh#*$ happens. Help make it right.

Guys, that's enough to say shit and common words like "Study hard and
everything will be ok"!
It's really annoying. Everybody knows it and tries to go through the
technologies as much as possible in depth. But the cases like which
happened
to Gabriel become more and more frequent. And this is not a candidate
failure as we see but Cisco's. Recently I took the Assessor and
Autoverify
said to me that I have missed RIP completely. That was lie! On the
contrary
RIP configuration was completely OK. Autoverify said that I missed
'router
rip, ver 2' and so on....
Is it candidate failure too or what?
I hate this fu...ing tool cause it can play evil joke with me.
