Re: Can a normal person pass RS LAB ?

Oskar,

We had some students pass the V4, few of them on the first attempt and NONE
of them were instructors or had over 10 years of experience, let me tell you
something, the more you know, the more you find out how little you know, and
i have been in this industry for the past 32 years.

Passing on the first attempt, is pure LUCK, i passed couple of them on the
first attempt and i am the first to tell you that it was pure LUCK, looking
back i can see that i could have accomplished some of the tasks in another
way, and the ONLY reason i configured them the way i did, was pure guess. I
passed 2 of them within 20 or 21 days apart, which still does NOT mean
anything. If i can do it anyone can.

So yes, study hard and know your stuff, do not memorise and you will pass.
