So I go to a two day class this past Thursday and Friday and  tested on Saturday. The classes consisted of others who have either taken this before or like me, taking it for the first time. I have never been one do alot of classwork, pay attention in any classroom enviroment. This is evident in my early years as a Child Gosh and my academic scores in School. But this time I was going to pay attention. I was going to study. I was going to take notes. I was going to read everything I felt required to do my job in order for me to pass this test. I was going to Achieve.

  After sitting through two-eight hour sessions, I just knew I was going to breeze through this. The test was going to be a cake walk saturday. Who in their right mind could NOT pass this, I kept saying to myself. So on the final night before the test, i decide to go home and study hard for this. I went over everything that was given to the class in our notes. I studied to the point of almost falling asleep with the book opened. I just knew I was going to breeze through this.

  I go into the class on Saturday morning expecting nothing but high exspectations for myself. This was until I opened the test to begin.

   WHAT THE HELL  is something I kept asking myself throughout the test. We didn't discuss this in class????? WTH ???? how can I be expected to memorize something that, to learn something that wasn't gone over in the classroom? Questions not matching what was discussed?????

WTH???

   After taking the test , 3 hours later, I could see a small gathering of people standing who also took the test around outside, so I approached them. It seems I was not the only person who was asking himself that very same WTH question. After speaking to some I found out that some have taken this very same test for the third time with the same results. All they were doing was shaking their heads. People who are certified in the design field, not stupid people by no means had failed this test twice. I did not have high hopes in completeting this course with positive results.

   I do not feel I have even come close to passing this test. I do feel I will be on the list of those who will be taking the test again. This time I will not waste my time on the classroom and just show for the test. Maybe i am next in line to be that guy who takes the test for a Third time...shaking my head and wondering... WTH
