-	In September, when it was time to register, I had a decision to make: My level was just above level 3, so I could either take level 3 and pass awesomely without studying for it, or I could shoot for level 2, work really hard and try to at least get a decent score. My thought was, I'd rather get 50% on level 2 and not pass than get 100% on level 3 without studying.

I know hardly anyone else has the resources I do to study for 6+ hours a day, but that's why you should start now and push yourself (if only a little).
