10. Mikalai Zaikin's quiz and guide (i got 55.07% - i timed myself)
11. Whizlab 3 mock exams (52%, 73%, 64%)
Maybe my retention was low, so I got that low score. This is probably a span of 3 months or more.
Great comments from Peer Reynders, Mathew Philip, Petr Kleja, Uwe Schafer, Peter Cooke, Jim Ji, Wise Owen and Eddy Lee and those who replied to my messages. Thanks a lot. I might not have done it without all your replies. And thanks to my girlfriend caSey who stood by me through everything.
And lastly, I want to thank my hairdresser, the director, my supporting actor, the guy on the street, etc.
