Colleagues-- As long as you are hard at it now, my suggestion is to modify your time schedule so that you don't have to take the exam again. If you have had to take the exam more than once, make this the last time that you take it. You have about 5 weeks before the October testing period-- it may be a rough 5 weeks, however, plan on taking and passing and being done with it.
Yeah, I know, kids, work, school-- hopefully you have helpful spouses who understand the import of the challenge. Little children don't understand when Mommy/Daddy are always studying, however, hopefully, you will be able to knock it out of the park this time and not have to do it again.
Good Luck on your efforts.
