I was informed it would take 4-6 weeks for the regrade.

I think it's a mistake to switch to the higher level exams. You have just invested all this time on Course 4, and if you wait another year to take it again that stuff will go right out of your head. I would just persevere even though it's painful.

I thought about this option but I am scared of doing it as course 5, 6 are way harder and bigger (according to others who wrote them). But best wishes to your studying!

i am now working in a life insurance company.

i wish that i can continue taking course 4 for the next sitting. just that i already stuck C4 for 3 times (C1 to C3 have no problem for me). i do not know why and what happened to me. now too tired of the materials and wanna have a change temporary. i am still studying very hard and will not give up

Next time, make a "mental" note of your answers, then check them against some informed source.
(Warning: might be against the rules.)

Then, when it makes no sense that you've failed, and you're feeling a bit paranoid at your administering this Rebel Outpost, go to Schaumburg and demand to see your answer sheet. It's possible that someone has changed your answers so you will fail. Yes, the whole world is against you, it is.

Eh...Dr. T Non-Fan, you are joking about someone has changed our answers to make us fail right? We are talking about a respectful organization here. Please do not scare me.

But if you are NOT JOKING, please give advise on how can be request to see our answer sheet.

Thanks!

That was only for glenn, who has a "legitimate" reason for being paranoid.
And yes, I was "joking."
