I'll say this much when it comes time to pay drop the date if you don't feel
ready. You can usually grab a date a month out. Otherwise you might force
yourself to go when your not fully prepared, and believe me you don't want
to do that. It's very painful!!!!!
I failed in January no suprise as I knew I wasn't ready but I had my date
and I was not going to let it go. I can cram all that missing info into my
head in 30 days....yeah right. That plan did not work at all, and by the
time I got SJ I was toast from trying to get as many 12 hour sessions as I
could in the 30 days before the lab. I'm getting ready to take it again in
August. At minimum I have spent at least 40 hours a week on the rack for
the last 3 months, but I'm a little slow and your milage may vary. You have
been warned.
PS don't forget RFC's. I'm reading 2363 again on the fourth, but I'm slow
like that and thus have no life
Peace and Good Luck
