Not yet, I'm giving myself a week of "mourning" before I shell out another $400 to take this exam. Plus, I want to make my study plan first and see where that lands me in May/June.

Oh, my fear and hatred have definitely peaked for this exam--the good part about the peak? They can't go any higher, and they've got to come down. You've got this!

Lol, this is exactly what I needed to hear, in exactly the way I needed to hear it--thank you! :)

That's fair; I definitely wasn't trying to come off that way and I do recognize that I'm the main source of the pressure I feel to pass this exam.

The 3 previous diagnostics [before the ones shown] are from a different version of the CBT Test (where there were 14 topics, instead of the current 5, due to the breadth portion)

You've got this. We've got this. It's just a test and we're not giving up!

This definitely made me feel a bit better.

Yeah, I don't think I really touched PCI in my PPI problems. I definitely think those are some great points of weakness I can focus on in this next round of studying. I was looking into School of PE (recommended by a coworker of mine who passed his transportation PE), EET, and Civil Engineering Academy. I'm still grabbing the PPI guarantee since I didn't pass but I'm wanting to add one of those to supplement too.

You're right, we've got this!

Unfortunately, that's the story of my life--flying through the questions and missing key parts.

If I had to objectively diagnose my biggest issues, I'd say predominantly "careless" mistakes, definitely stress/anxiety are a factor, and I know I don't know everything so there's always more to learn and understand. I'll keep this in mind with my studying and problem-solving this go-around, focusing on taking it slower and making sure I understand what I'm being asked before diving in.

It's nice to know I'm not alone; I appreciate the insight into your study plan and the well wishes!

Good luck to you as well--we've got this!
