Thameem:
I did not make the comments you are quoting. I believe that Anthony and some
others might have made those comments.

However, I have looked into this and according to the Cisco certifications
online support portal, there will be a reread of the open ended questions
sections as well. However, you may not ask for a reread of just the open
ended questions.
