You should have absolutely no problem passing the exam by doing this. The book has two exams, the assessment and practice, which I didn't take till after I read the book. If you take the practice exams more than once, try to give yourself a waiting time of at least a week to help remove the fresh imprint the exam has left in your memory. I just signed up for the SSCP in April, and will probably be doing the same thing: taking the practice exam in February, once in March, and once more before my test (along with any other tests).

I took a 4 week course to help me and I also purchased Darril Gibson's book. HOWEVER.. I realized too late that I purchased the SY0-201 book instead of the 301 book. I have EXTREME test anxiety, though I did very well in my class I'm finding that I'm failing all my practice tests!! Does anyone know what differences there are with the 201 vs 301 book? Or, does anyone know the best thing or online practice tests I should be taking to finishing cramming for the test? It is now Thursday night, my test is Saturday morning at 9am! HELP!!!!
