    These companies make their money from these tests. They give you as little information as they can get away with about the exams and go from there.

    Anyhow, what materials are you using?

    screw if its easier, you don't want the easy way out...

    what are you using to study? Just practice exams?

    Aw dude, sounds like you didn't know but they are a brain **** scam. You'll never pass with those (and if you did, you wouldn't know what you are doing)

    I would recommend you use

    CBTNuggets/TestOut for video training or www.vtc.com if you can't afford them.
    Sybex books
    And of course lotsa of lab time.

    Just for a little real world experience, start messing with the ultimate boot cd.

    Yeah, use the above website to safeguard any study materials you are using. (brain) **** are for chumps, as the saying goes. You don't wanna use them, plain and simple. They jeopardize your career and discredit your personal integrity, as well as the integrity of the exam. Personally, I'd rather fail 10 times, then to be known as a cheater.

    These tests can be tricky. Keep up the legitimate studies, you'll pass. Get study resources from Mike Myers, Preplogic, Transcender, Technotes, cramsession, ect......

    You came really close to passing. Don't give up, you're too close. Test jitters probably didn't help. When you retake the test, at least you'll have an idea what to expect. Be sure to read each question all the way through, more than once. Sometimes the wording on these type of tests can be tricky.

    Also, be sure you get the objectives for the exam. Go through the objectives, and eliminate the ones you feel sure about. Then, just focus on the objectives you feel shaky about. Then you'll pass for sure.

    Good luck!
