I'm still a little panicky about my certification tests. I know I sound like a broken record, but at $125 a pop, pass or fail, it's pretty important that I pass the first time.

I went to the bookstore to check out some books in a series called Exam Cram, since a friend of mine at work recommended them, but they didn't have any of the ones I needed. I looked at the ones they did have, to get a feel for how they are laid out, and they look pretty decent, but it's like 300 pages of information that I don't want to have to pick through to figure out the important parts. I mean, isn't that what the self test software is for? To show me what I need to know and drill me via flash cards? So I think I may just try the first test using the self test software and the knowledge in my head, as useless as that may be.
