Thank you very much leggoPE...if I do decide to do this again, it'll have to be this coming cycle... I don't want to take a whole year off and risk forgetting the concepts I've worked so hard to re-learn...Aww @jvanoye, I'm sorry to hear that. That's tough. But I'm a big believer that every time you take the PE exam, you become better prepared. Take a break, and then get back to it when you are ready. This exam will not own you forever. You can and you WILL pass!
