Hello Mohamed,
The first thing you need to understand, is that very few pass on their first
attempt. It is always good to hope for it, but it should never be expected.
If you expect it, you are setting yourself up for a big let down.
Please do not give up. You have invested so much time and money to this
point, it would be a worse failure to just give up.
Focus on your weak points on your score report, but don't forget to refresh
everything else. I think a common mistake is people study their weak points
and forget everything else and when they go back for their second attempt,
they are caught off guard if the exam does not test the weak points they
just put so much effor into studying. This could be why it is almost as
rare for people to pass on their second attempt.
There are many versions of the exam. Don't assume that they will test you
heavily on your weak areas. They could, but don't assume it.
If you are using a vendor workbook practice labs, go back through them and
focus more on what they are trying to teach you in each lab rather than
finishing the lab itself. A lot of people think that just because they can
finish all the labs in a workbook, they are ready for the real thing.
You will make it.

Subject: How to start again after failing your first try
Dear Group,
I failed on my first try 12 June 2007 , I prepared well for the exam
but the Exam stress and some stupid mistakes I made cause me much time.
anyway I need to start again and get ready for the 2nd try
I don't need what to do ??
I already read most of recommended books , practice a lot
my weak points are multicast, service, and security
I know that have to learn more about these and practice them more, but i
don't feel like studying again
any suggestion....
Thanks
Mohamed
