I took the A+ core Hardware exam which had alot of good questions, but some were very wierd. I won't mention them but on more than a few questions I seriously could have gone fifty-fifty. But hey, I guess thats life.
I recieved a 642 out of 900, and I feel really bad because I felt that I knew every single question on my exam by heart. I only needed to mark five questions to go back to (although I fealt more than 75 percent sure that they were right), and two of those I remembered after the test when I came home, so i looked them up and I had them right. Is it possible to get a 642 by only missing 3 questions? Its times like this that I wish I could see the marked test.

I feel so disappointing because I feel I know it far better than my score reflects. I am seriously contemplating retaking the exam, just to get a higher score; the score that I busted my butt off to achieve (that means takeing IT Essentials 1 and passing with an A+, busting my butt off for 3 months reviewing 2003 as well as 2002 objective material, takeing 3-100 question practice exams, taking end of chapter quizes from THREE diferent books, each with at least 6 hardware related chapters...I feel robbed).
1. Does anyone feel the same way I do about the exam? (That their vast knowledge is cheated and degraded by guessing games and not very well thought out questions).
2. What do you feel is a good score on the exam?
3. Finally, does the score even matter to employers or is it just the fact of having the cert that matters? If it does matter, then will someone with a higher score get the better job?

Set Goals Setting goals helps you decide what is important, gives you a plan for success, and keeps you focused. Setting goals takes five steps: decide what you want to accomplish, set smaller goals to motivate yourself, decide what will take to get you there, evaluate your progress and when you’ve accomplished your goal, set a new goal.
Set Big Goals First. Tell them to think of how they want to finish the semester or year. What grades do you want? What do they want to learn? What do they want to achieve? Creative, precise and realistic goals, and them down. Their goals should be manageable- not too difficult, but not too easy. If they want to improve their math grade, thing about what you want to accomplish in the class, decide if is realistic and go for.
Break Down the Big Goal into Mini-Goals. After they make goals have them think about mini-goals that can help them accomplish their big goals. For instance, if they want an A in math, think of baby steps that will get them to their goals, like doing better on test, and homework assignments. Give deadlines for mini-goals and have them check their progress often.
Plan How You Will Tackle the Mini-Goals. Takes training and practice to meet your goals. Plan strategies- organizing time or study materials, visa academic services a couple times a week, study instead of cramming for tests, form study groups or set aside specific times uninterrupted to study or do homework. Plan and do. Also recommended you this help you prepare for the certification.
