I was really really nervous going in to take the test today. Not because I didn’t feel like I was prepared, but more because I just didn’t know what to expect. So, it was really nice to just start taking the test because I don’t think I could have studied any more. I have studied so much the past week that I just wasn’t sure what areas I needed to focus on.
The test started out really well and I felt confident on most of the answers. By the time I was nearing the end I figured out the lab, but I took a little bit too much time on it and so I ran out of time on the last 4 questions. 
I bet If I had the time to answer them I would have passed.
My final score was an 807 and you need to have an 825 to pass. So pretty close, and I’m sure I’m going to nail it next time around. Honestly I’m not that upset as I thought I would be for not passing. I put in an honest effort and did really well on most of the exam. So, now I’m just going to continue studying hard so that I can pass it next week.
Below is are two images of the print out they give you after you take your test. It shows my score and also the percentages I got on the different topics in the exam.
So the last few questions that I rushed through were all about switches which is why I have that low 33% score. Now that I know what to expect though I’m going to do great the second time around.
Thanks everyone for your support, keep working hard, set high expectations, and don’t be afraid to fail. Sometimes it’s the only way to success.
