The interpretation and task dependency thing seems to be a big factor. Did
you invest at lot of time reading through the whole lab before beginning
config or did you start quickly to rake in some points?
'free wheelin' written testkingers.' :)
You mean folks that don't do enough reading because.. 'the written is
useless for lab prep anyway so just dump it'....plus 'you can memorise
configs from workbooks'.. right?
