Is quitting the best option?

What the hell are you talking about? You’ve paid the fees so you might as well go and sit there for 6 hours. Get some real exam experience or just have a look around or scribble on the sheets ….

In theory you “only” need to score 80% on 80% of the material to pass (and blind-guess the rest).  Much easier said than done, of course…  

I’m poorly prepared for this next exam so my plan of attack is to speed-read through the “summary” sections of each reading and take note of anything I’m not familiar with.  Saturday I’ll sit a mock exam (AM & PM) then spend Sunday working out where I went wrong, prioritise areas for improvement and hopefully close some knowledge gaps.  Given my lack of preparation over the past 2 months I’m probably going to fall a bit short of passing (reckon I’d test something around the 60% mark if the exam was today), but hell, if everyone who had doubts didn’t turn up there would be very, very few people show up. :smiley: 

Discouragement is one of the biggest enemies. If you’re already feeling discouraged, that is likely contributing to lower scores. 

I agree with RoyD, its worth it to stick to it. You’ve come this far, give it a valiant effort and your results may surprise you! And even if you don’t pass, going through the experience will make you much more prepared for next year’s sitting – either way its a worthwhile investment of time! Go for it!

Well those 3 topics make up like 40% of the curriculum weightage. Go for it.
