[Cisspstudy] CCCure Quizzer

Phil,

one tip for you before the exam, i took that exam in dec 20th 2008, and
failed it.
my mistake was i spent too much time on scenario based questions and they
kept popping up as i started my exam, when i reached at 70% of my exam it
was almost 90 mins left on my watch, my brain was exhausted couldn't focus
on pretty strait forward question and started to guess and that lead me to
fail the exam. So please relax and skip that you dont understand in first
time, exam is not that hard but 250 question in one shot is hard, build your
stamina practicing 250 test questions in one sitting.

goodluck....

Ali....
