  11. How long should you wait before knowing you didn't get the job???

  23. My testing anxiety!!

    I'm not sure how many people actually feel 100% ready to take the exam. I took mine yesterday and I pretty much had accepted the fact that I was as ready as I was ever going to be. My school used ATI...
