I scored between 80% and 90% on my second attempts. On my second attemp for my test #3 i got a 68% On my 3rd attempt I got a 99%. But the test I took was harder than either test 5 that I took. I was slamming my practice tests and I dont know what happened.

We only get 2 attempts each test. My lowest on second attempts is 81 and that's on practice exam 5
We were told 5 is the hardest. I made a 86 on practice exam 3.
I am feeling confident, hope I pass. Any suggestions?

dont stop studying... I was confident as well. Make sure you grasp all of the concepts, because the test looks nothing like the practice tests that reged provides. But i was also told by the reged teacher that I got an unusually hard test. Remember when your instructor told you, "you may not even need your calculator on the test. You may get one maybe 2 questions that you need a calculator." I got 7. And the questions looked nothing like the reged questions. Its really different. Just make sure you know it.

Like I said 81 is my lowest grade on any of the 2nd attempts,
Which is the best lowest grade of anyone in our group.
I'm cinfident trying not to be over confident.
I'm really gunna pray I don't get a test like you had.
I had heard it all looks really different and the verbage is completly different
Another thing that's helping me I think is that I just graduated from business school in december so all still fresh in my mind where u said u were in kines. Which is a totally different ball game

true! you have a very big advantage over me! you should be fine then. I had pretty bad test anxiety because i havent taken a test in about 4 years. so it was a little different for me. I hope you do great! What branch will you be at?

Yeah man thanks, I will be in thibodaux, orginally from franklin, went to ull myself for a semster before transferring to nicholls and graduating.
Yeah I was taking tests last semester so that makes test taking a lil easier and not as nervous.
I hope they let u retake, I think they will, girl in group before us made a 68 and they lettin her retake cause her practice tests were good.
What branch will u be in?

U tellin me u didn't pass is making me more nervous than I was before.
Hope I do good, I am in the middle of buying a house and need this job now

I'll be in Opelousas, originally from New Iberia. Im training in Lafayette though. Yea what sucks is, mrs vicki alleman is on Vacation, and she's the big boss for my area, maybe yours too. She is the one who decides who can retake it and what not. Her assistant seems to think they'll let me retake it, but cant make any promises because of all the restructuring. But my Branch Manager is also campaigning for me because that branch has no PB at all, she's having to do it all. So i've got some things going for me but no guarantee's...

i had a potential fiance and a new life riding on my test... believe me I understand! It was alot of pressure. And now that I've taken it, i know what to expect next time. But when you are about to take it, relax! It will be hard but try...

Yeah I am buying a house right now plus just got engaged so a lot riding, good news is capitol one and regions bank In my town both lookin for pbs haha, would rather not have to
Chanhge jobs and wait through hiring process.

Got some xanax to help me relax so that shouldn't be too bad of a problem.
I have been confident, probably over confident ythrough this whole process, til u just said u didn't pass and how different it is

yea, i had the same attitude! I honestly thought I knew the material backwards and forwards. I read the book twice. But you have a couple of advantages. My suggestion, tone down the confidence (a little) and reread mutual funds and variable annuties. And taxation of both! but i cant say anymore. I'll be in trouble with FINRA! haha... just remember what you learned! and congrats on the engagement and the new house. sub the house for a jeep and thats me!
