Hi Wayne, I have only months to go for my final exam. So far my preparation is based on V9 workbook. I am not sure if I need to reschedule my exam. After seeing the material I will make that decision but I was just thinking if there is going to be lot of change I will postpone my exam.
The reason I am saying this because if I don't change the date by 23rd , I will not able to change it after that. Do you think we will have the new material by then.
