Pray for me

Tomorrow at 1:30 EST I have to take the Series 63 - State Securities Licensing Exam.

The future of my job, place of residence, mental/physical health and schedule for the rest of the show season depends on it.

I have been studying like mad, but finance to a me is like proper English to Dubya - the two just don’t mix.

If I don’t pass, I might as well give the horse away, go home and live with Dad - and renew my status as Drive-Thru Queen and the McDonalds in Waterloo, VA.

Happy thoughts for VTrider please

Hugs and kisses to all.

Wouldn’t Colin just tell you to “visualize” doing well on your exam and you’ll be fine? Well forget that mumbo jumbo - it’ll never work for her and it won’t work for you! Take no prisoners and go out there and WIN!!! LOL

If you’ve already done the Series 7, the Series 63 will be a breeze! From a fellow finance professional - good luck!!

up north where it’s 97 in the shade! Maybe Amanda should come down and help–lord knows I can’t keep her contained.

Don’t get stuck in the sludge if you’re that confident in your ride!

Alright VT!! Now get back on e-mail and fill me in on ALL the gory details

PS - I’ll drink one for you tonight… or five…

You know the results already? That’s great! I was figuring it was like the bar exam, where you take the test and get to spend another 4 months waiting for the results.

Contratulations VTR!

If you don’t pass, the Middleburg Classic horse show will SUCK!

Study hard…FOCUS…You can do it!!!

xoxoxo

Good luck! and remember, when you don’t know the answer, choose “C.”

Good luck VTrider - from what Duffy says - you’ll ace the test!!! Just crossing my fingers for you just in case.

Congrats to VT! Woo HOO, champagne and cocktails for everyone. Ride your horsey, pat yourself on the back, we knew you could do it!

…and you get to sit in front of the terminal with a sick feeling in the pit of your stomach as the computer calculates your score.

I took (and passed) the Series 7 and I can still remember the racing heart and dry mouth that were primarily due to the fact that I never wanted to crack open that book again. Now that I think about it I remember feeling a lot like my first time ever in the Dixon Oval at Devon .

Good luck on the next two tests VT Rider! The 7 is a bear. I learn by doing so I did the majority of my studying by taking the practice tests. And just remember, if you get a score over 70% it only means that you studied too hard!

Nina (now studying for the MCSE - gotta love those adaptive exams)

Good luck!

We will ALL be praying and sending good vibes your way!!

My prayers and thoughts are with you!

~Insanity is repeating the same behavior over and over and expecting different results~

Good luck, VT!!!

Fingers, toes and other appropriate body parts will be crossed for you!!!

You’ll do fine, especially if your wearing your new chaps.

Congratulations! Yippee!!

I always say they named it the “Blue Sky” laws/test because the rules/questions seem to come out of the clear blue sky!

At least the 7 made sense.

I finished my 7 when others were just coming in from lunch. I was sure I had failed – there was no way I could be done and passed while these other people slaved over the test.

The time the computer took to calculate the results was the longest minute/hour of my life “yes, damn it, I want to know my results and I want to know them NOW”.

The 7 is life altering – just remember, they are going to try to fool you. Think hard about what they are REALLY asking, not what they appear to be asking at first glance. They have the right to do this, it is their test!

Just put on your “logical thinking cap” and don’t forget to carry the ones.

Finance, huh? Somehow that and horses never seemed to go together with me…but I can do some very creative financing when it comes to something I REALLY want.

Good luck, I will do a bank reconciliation in your honor tomorrow at about 1:30EST. Maybe the vibes will help.

“The older I get, the better I used to be.”

VT will pass the test! (Does this mean you’ll pull Maddie’s mane for me? )

You didn’t even report in on your new Journeyman chaps so you must be studying like mad for this! Such efforts surely will be rewarded.

Late breaking news - a call from a very happy VTRider reveals that she did indeed pass her test. She thanks everyone for her well wishes.

On a related note, she has been advised of Colin’s apparent concession, and realizes that she had put her money on the wrong horse, so to speak.

Maybe we’ll have to call ya later, DMK!
