PLEASE HELP!!! A+ OS in a few days!!!!!!!!

I'm taking the OS part of the A+ next week. I'm really nervous b/c everyone I talk to says its the hardest test ever. They say its WAY harder than the Core part. I just hope I can come out with a passing score and become A+ Certified!!

Can you guys give me some last minute advice? I'm looking for some good online practice exams to see how much I know. Also, what are some key points that I should pay close attention to before the test? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks....

Confidence. That's your best weapon at this point. You studied, right?

Good luck on your upcoming Exam!
Did you get any CD's with any of your books you studied from? I got a CD with each of my books and they are loaded with questions. Also, this site has available practice tests. In fact, there all over the web. It's just a matter of picking and choosing your way through them all.

I just took the OS test on www.mcmcse.com and got 40/50 correct which comes out to an 80. Most of the questions I missed had choose all that apply, but I'm sure the real thing will tell you how many to choose. What are some other good practice sites? I know about these:

www.****.com
www.mcmcse.com

Can you guys recommend any others that I may not know about?

Remember that if you don't feel uber confident, you can always change the date of your exam at most places by a few days, just to brush up.

Just don't make the mistake of psyching yourself out. I was terrified for my exam, simply because I hadn't taken any tests since High School. Just relax, read the questions thoroughly a couple of times, and answer to the best of your ability. When you get to a question that makes your mind blink and spew 4-letter words, mark it and come back to it when you've answered what you know.

Honestly with the A+ there's no reason not to take them one right after another (well, maybe a short break to rest your brain and calm your nerves). The prep exams and such usually through out much more complicated material than what you'll see on @ half the exam. You can do it!

You have your Net+ which is harder than A+, you'll be fine.

Have faith.

Thanks everybody for all of the help. I'm taking the test tomorrow morning and I'll be sure to let everybody know how I did. Well I'm off to hit the books.
