rats. so much work put in… I am also sorry.

That stinks, but don't lose hope. Maybe you should take some days off to rest and re-study with new technique?

I scored 74-74 on REG … I know how pissed you are right now.

You gotta get medieval … start over and don't cut any corners and kick its ***.

Thanks for the encouragement guys, I really appreciate it. Just to make sure, theres no way to contest the score with a favorable outcome right?

Correct – they won't change your score … you're better off focusing on killing it this time.

So sorry to hear that!!! I know what the 74 pissed off reaction is so I am sure you are super pissed. Sorry. 🙁 vent, take a break, then do what Jeff said…get medieval on FAR and kill it next time. I have found typing my notes to give me an extra boost. Hoping it works.

B: 81 (3X) May 2012

I just posted this on another thread too- but if you feel like you really really know the material maybe you need to also focus on your test taking?

Either way I'm so sorry- a 74 is the worst score ever in some ways.

Go have a drink- or eight. And then try and try again.

Mikey,

SO sorry to hear about the dreaded 74…… Look at my signature, i am the king of 70's. Hang in there… jeff is correct, dont go for the re-check, 0.00% probability that they will reverse the score.

I know that feel, bro.

Had 74 on BEC

73 & 74 on AUD

Keep going, we know you can do it.

@Mikey89: So sorry to hear that. FAR is a beast, just keep at it. I know you were really prepared, and that scares me more as I'm taking it next week and I don't feel prepared:(

We WILL eventually pass this.

[Anonymous]

@ Mikey….Nothing can stop us now…they can only slow us down (if that) but cannot stop us !!!

Take a break and hit it hard again…you will be good !!!!

Goodluck again !!!

[tbstew]

Dude you've totally got it nailed next time around. Just go at it like a crazy person and hit it again the first month of the very next window.

AUD - 79
BEC - 88
REG - 87
FAR - 86 - Woot, all done!
Ethics - 100

[Mikey89]

Thanks for the love guys. Unfortunately, I got AUD on Friday, so the much needed mental break is going to be postponed. The good news is I've scheduled it right before my birthday 🙂
