Hey all. Just about to complete the second block and can almost begin to see the light at the end of this journey. It was true! Second block is pretty tough but I'm optimistic that if I'm able to get through this I can get through the rest of the program.

My question is one for the ages...Do you guys have any tips on reducing test anxiety?!?! It seems that even though I know all the information, I always get WAY too worked up, and end up missing really simple questions. I know this is going to open up a can of worms but all replies are welcomed!! This will be an interesting posting to see what different people do to get through the test.

Let the madness begin!!
