exams are always difficult, when we are unprepared!

I think before you post comments like this, you should get all the facts. I specifically said in my post that I put a lot of time and effort into studying and in a more recent post I mentioned that I spent 3 1/2 months studying...and that's all while working full time. I do not go into exams unprepared, and as a rule I will not take an exam unless I feel ready...

Sometimes I think it is the luck of the draw flipflops. I took FAR the 26th and felt prepared going in but walked out defeated. I spent easily 400 hrs studying. I did only get about 3 hours sleep the night before, I'm not saying that is why I think I did poorly but I believe it contributed.

I felt prepared going in to the exam but i guess i wasn't. The funny part is i was not prepared at all for govermental and i did the best on that section. So i don't know what happend. Just trying again. DON"T GIVE UP.

Why r u taking my comments personally....this was a
generalized statement...u r not alone who studied while
working...am a father of 2..working full time, delivering
the family responsibilities and studying too.....it
doesnt matter how much time we devote for studies..thats
hardwork....the underlying thing is how fast u get the
stuff in ur head and can retain it till the
exam.....anyways after passing the exam..things fade out
of memory and there kicks in our experience and we
sharpen our tools as we move ahead in our professional
career.
