I hope I at least get to 265 this time so I will know I am getting better. JennGood luck to you! You must be two boy's mom? I know how hard it is to keep studying, raising kids and working?? I wrote my second time just yesterday. I have no idea if I did well or not. I was so ready to write it but I still had some questions which I did not pay attention to study for!!! Just extra tip for you....bring some snack bar or anything which boost your concentration and energy! I took two breaks for 5 hours exam (I got 190Q's) and I ate a chocolate bar....I needed! Good luck to you again, and keep posting :chuckle

I will post again on Sat...Thanks again ya'llJennhi there i feel for you because i to have 2 girls a husband and unemployed; will some day this year take the test the third time. i know it is a hard test and i wish there was another way one can qualify but this is the road we all have to take. hang in there and pray hard. what ever the out come, cry, dust yourself up and try again; let me share this. a renound professor was asked to give a speach to a graduating class. when it was his turn he went up, stayed silent for 8 seconds and then said: "never give up, never give up,never give up !" then walked off, leaving everyone supprised. but ponder on the words and you will get the message. bye and good luck.
