Confident and scared. Anyone else?

in Network+
I have been studying for the net+ for the past few weeks, and since I also work with networks in my day job, I'm very confident about the material and think I'll pass without a problem.
However, when I take all these practice exams I find around on the web, I fail some of them, which has me worried. It seems that some of the questions on these practice exams are so extremely detailed, that there's NO WAY you can learn every number of every technology out there. So I'm also a little scared. I'm at the point that I think I should just forget about the exams, and keep studying.
Can anyone out there offer some advice about practice exams?

Most of the good practice exams drill into the subject matter (as they should) to solidify your understanding of the broader topic that will be on the test. Make no mistake about it though you will have some "HUH?" questions on that Network+ exam but for the most part if you work on networks day to day and study for this exam, you should be in good standing for a pass. -

Confidence is very good sign that your prepared. You just have to go for it, and stay positive. I would stress not passing, because I'll have to pay again, but who cares, it's just money $$$

Don't let the practice exams spook you. Print a copy of the exam objectives, work down the list and when you are confident in your grasp of the info on the list, go 4 it.
Instead of concentrating on practice tests, I would suggest grabbing study guides from several sources. These will give you a quick overview and refresh for the details of the exam. I say several sources because the same info from different sources usually sticks in your head better.
