Just under 2 weeks until 801

Just under 2 weeks left till i take the 801 exam. I have read and reread the book sections, downloaded and installed the Sybex test things from the website, watched all of the Professor Messer's videos and have his study guide, purchased the MeasureUP 801 package. Going to take the practice test here and read the study guide. I am either going to take it on the 3rd or 4th of next month as that is the earliest that i can get scheduled in to the testing center.

This wait is killing me. Want to go ahead and take it.

Just keep studying. Go into it confident and you'll be fine! ....trust you're gut.

Best of luck! I would suggest the free tests on Examcompass. I took those a few days before the test and thought they were pretty helpful. Other than that, I spent my last day or two speed reading through the 801 sections in Mike Meyers book and listening to professor messers videos in my spare time.

Jwvantas,

Just be confident and relaxing when taking the 801 exam. Best of luck to you. I take my 802 exam in a couple of days and I completely understand on how you feel. When I took the 801, I was confident (still am) and relaxed, took deep breaths and passed the 801 exam. I'm going to do the same process when taking the 802 exam. Anyway, be confident and relax yourself. Good luck.

Thanks for all of the advice. I am taking all of the tests on Examcompass and so far they have all been in the 80% range. It is showing me that i need to go back and study a few things. Going back and watch all of the Messer videos again. Will read the chapters again soon.

Just relax Jwvantas, go into the testing center with confidence. Say to yourself, "I'm going to pass this exam today." Something to that nature. I take my 802 exam this coming Friday and trust me, I now the feeling about being nervous. Anyway, hope to hear from you soon and that you passed the 801 exam. Good luck.

Passed with a 768

nice work!

Congratulations!

Congrats on passing your 801!
