Re: winning strategy

Of course I don't mean literally sit the lab or give you actual exam
questions (cheating.) What I mean is some people tend to put all the
responsibility on a vendor, and tend to blame the vendor if they don't pass
instead of blaming themselves because they did not put in the time and
effort to prepare properly. In other words, no vendor is a magic pill. A
vendor is a great resource for learning and speeding up your progress, not
a replacement for hard work and dedication
