About this episode
You studied after work every day. You sacrificed your weekends to stay home studying. You even took vacation time to study even more. You literally walked into the exam knowing you gave it your all…but guess? ?It wasn’t enough to pass — and that’s not the first time it happened. ?If you’re in that repeat taker position, this one is for you. Whether you failed only once or multiple times.In this episode, Mark and I sit down to talk about one aspect that makes professional exams way more like sports than most people realize: the mental part of “playing the game.”Athletes lose games, miss shots, and get injured. But the ones who make it aren’t the ones who never fail. Instead, they’re the ones who learn how to make a comeback when they do fail.That same concept applies to FE, PE, and any other big exam that’s ever knocked you down before — and this episode gives you the tools and strategies you need to pull this off.Failing actually doesn’t mean you’re done. In a weird way, it might actually be the best news you could’ve gotten!Now, tune in to this episode to learn how to make good use of this good news and get it to propel you to a passing score faster than you think.?
