CompTIA A+ 220-902 test

I don't think I've discussed this before, but if I have then I'll reiterate for those who may still be unaware: For the past year and a half I have been in the process of studying to become a certified computer technician so that I can enter the IT field. It has been a long time coming and there have been more than a few bumps in the road, but tomorrow I am finally taking the 220-902 test, the final test I'll need to complete in order to get the CompTIA A+ certification, a baseline computer science certification that should allow me to take my first steps into the IT world. I have technically taken this test before, back before the standards were updated and the test was the 220-802, and that time I failed it. But now I have retested back up to this point under the new standards and am ready to take it again.

Needless to say, I am extremely nervous about tomorrow. Although I feel I am much more ready for this test than I was last time and I am currently averaging at around 75% on my practice tests across various websites, there is still always that nagging fear and uncertainty. And failing this test not only means a delay in my road to becoming certified, but also the loss of a considerable investment as well, as each test costs $200 to take.

So wish me luck! I'll post again tomorrow morning after I'm done to let you all know how it went.

I wish you the best tomorrow! I completely understand the fear and anxiety around these types of test. I have been in the same boat with my CPA exam which is four parts that come out to about the same cost. You will rock it!
