Hi,
My exam was scheduled for today, Tuesday 18th. I got a call from Pearson-VUE (the agency which conducts the exam) yesterday and they said that the test center i had planned to give an exam at has a major construction going on, so I will need to reschedule it to a diff test center or deal with that. I am not sure why they planned to give only at a 24 hour notice. Anyway, I rescheduled my test at a different location for the 29th.

My problem is that I had so much momentum and now i dont feel like doing anything. I dont feel like practicing any more either and I am feeling as if I hit my peak about a week ago and everything since then has been downhill. I have prepared so much for the exam (almost 8 hours a day for the last 30 days) and I dont want to forget everything I have done, in the next 10 days. I already feel like i am forgetting everything.

Any suggestions on regaining my momentum. I have just a few more days to go...

Wow, that really sucks. Sorry to hear about the cancellation.

If it's a matter of a few days, I recommend spending some time to put together some flashcards of key concepts for you. Review these cards a few times daily, and just to stay fresh try doing 5 practice problems for each session.

Keep it fairly light so you can be rested during your test. Good luck!
