GIAC Cert Attempt: need some confidence...

[iamnowonmai at gmail.com (iamnowonmai)]

I am limited in what I can say, due to NDA's. But let me say that if you are
studying that much, and have either indexed your textbooks or flagged them
for quick lookups, and have scored highly on the practice exams, you should
have a high level of confidence going into the exam. Remember to take your
time, and read both the question and answers thoroughly before picking; it
is worth the extra thirty seconds or so, especially if you aren't running
into time issues in the practice tests. Good luck, Patrick. Please let us
know how you do! :)
