I think I've got it sussed it just I am never confident when it comes to exams, although I have never failed an exam before there's always a first time.

I am going through my cram sessions sheets this weekend and will go over my notes before the exams.

Confidence is lacking and I don't know why. I am confident in speaking to people and showing them how to use their computers better and safer (I am always doing that at work, always getting questions asked) but when it comes to tests I am not confident.

If the exam was based in some sort of environment where someone was testing me on my skills (like the driving test) I would be very confident.

I can but only try.

 

Right just looking through the archive and here are some threads:-

StudyNotes for A+

This was a thread about a useful website that has concise notes on the A+ exam.

IRQ address


networking questions in A+

Follow a balanced study DIET


I hope this helps

 

Cheers Dave I'll use those every little helps

 

Well, I've seen your confidence whenever you answer questions here on the forum as well. Maybe when you set for the test, you should respond the same. After all, the exam will simply be someone asking questions, you just won't be able to see them. Much like a forum. Think positive and ace this puppy.

 

The study pyramid is a goodway to describe test taking tips cheers again Dave

 

Thats a good idea, if I think of the questions asked as a poster I'm trying to help then maybe that will help, cheers Bill.

 

Rep to Bill & UCM thanks guys.

 

Your Welcome mate..just found some more threads in the Archive...Can't beileve how big the Archive is now..I almost got lost at one point! LOL

Remembering IRQ's, COM and LPT

and this one was about losing sight of your goals and motivation while study A+

Motivation

 

cheers again, very helpful again

 

Just found some threads on A+ quiz by Mr Cheeks (aka TheCheekMaster)


Questions for the Day -18-8-6-

Someone asked for OS questions...


Practise Exam Questions For A+

OMG - HARDWARE 2003 OBJECTIVES - The day I sat the exam!

I can't beileve how nervous I was that day..the thread made me laugh.. I hope you will find it funny too.

Good luck GBL

 

Cheers mate

 

Good luck mate, am sure you'll do well! I just have to make sure I join you with a pass too now as my essentials exam is on Tuesday! Going to book my 602 straight after I (hopefully) pass the Essentials, else i'm rebooking!

 

Cheers good luck with your exams too.

 

Good luck GBL - when I've done any exams, if I don't know it 2 days before then that chances of getting some more information in my head is small

Last 2 days, refreshing my short term memory with diagrams rather than words - and just taking it easy, always looking at my last few cram pages, getting my head around how they may ask the questions and resign to the fact, there's nothing I can do to change whats going to happen and just let time take its course - that seems to calm my nerves somewhat.

You'll be fine though - you know this material pretty well as it shows from your responses on here.
Good luck!

 

Perhaps spending less time on here and revising more would be helpfull?

 

Sometimes it helps to chill by chatting with your mates...

GBL will be fine. He knows it like the back of his hand... but last minute nerves do tend to creep in from time to time... and those words of encouragement from others can help immensley, as I know from my own experience.

Suggest that you might want to try it sometime...

 

Certainly hasn't hurt me any.

GBL will be just fine.

 

Cheers guys, I should be ok. I have been revising this afternoon and will do some more tonight then I'll ease of a bit tommorow.
