I am not sure what kind of exam that is, but it probably takes a great deal of perseverance to do it. You can do it!

i think my getting a post graduate degree was the most challenging thing for me. i decided on a college that no one approved of but i stuck woith my decision. also the subject was tough. i had to work really hard, which i did and passed first class. it was touthg and equally rewarding. i oculd have opted for an easire subject and relaxed instead...

I appreciate all the responses from everyone. I'm behind on making responses because I've had the flu with a high fever and have been so out of it I can scarcely sit on the Internet, but I wanted you all to know I've been here to this thread and read the answers of all the courageous accomplishments you've shared.

After graduating college, I planned (together with a college buddy), organized, got funding for, and started a business from scratch. It was a monumental amount of work, especially since we had little or no experience. But somehow we managed to get bank financing, and an import company was born and provided some manner of livelihood (not great, by any means) for more than a decade. My business partner left after a few years, and I ended up running the business by myself for the final 5-6 years, eventually employing as many as 17 people. In the end, I closed it down because I no longer wanted to deal with the stress, and basically "being on call" around the clock. But I am certainly glad to have had the experience.
