| there are a few thing I learned in my A+ endeavors. I came into this A+
endeavor a little cocky. I have been an industrial electronics technician
for 20 years. I already had an FCC radiotelephone, FCC radar, ISCET
journeyman industrial electronics certification and had never faultered.
Then I breezed the A+ core hardware on August 26 on the adaptive , so a week
later I was overconfident I would pass the OS adaptive hands down. I failed
the old OS adaptive on Sept 2. It let the air out of me , $100 down the
drain , I swore I was sick of A+ and didn't need it anyway. But I kept
reading about others passing on this newsgroup and it made me jealous. So I
hit the books again and passed the OS with 772 on Nov 21. I must say the A+
OS is my proudest accomplishment. Keep studying people and be humble and
don't let one defeat overcome you.

| Hey Pat,
First, congrats. Feel for ya, bro. I have been an industrial electrician
for 15 years (not quite your tenure) and work with plc programs. I
understand where you are coming from ;-).
Either way, congrats and welcome to geekdom!
