Coming into the test all I heard were horror stories from students of previous years. Many of them told me not to study, "Impossible to pass," "not meant to be taken seriously," and "stupid". I was the foolish kid who decided to listen to them and go into the test blind. I mean sure I read most of the book, but simply reading a 400 page book does not allow me to call on all of the specific components of leadership (since there were plenty of them mentioned in the book). With that said I believe that I will at least gain some partial credit on a lot of my answers, besides the two that I did not answer at all. Had I studied and really gone back over the basic points the book made, I would not only have passed the test, but probably could have received a low B, and I am talking about minimal study. I was only able to recall 3 of the 5 components of leadership, something that could have easily been memorized ten minutes before the test. So, a lesson to be learned through this blog.....don't listen to everything your friends tell you because they are probably wrong!
Peace Out
