Phil asked:
Regarding taking CRM exams 1 through 5, when you sat for your exam, did any of you take more than 1 exam during an exam period. If so, how many did you take, did you find it manageable, and would you recommend doing so?

Phil I would echo Brett and Jason's comments. I also took Mark Langemo's advice as Bill mentioned. I matched up similar sections and took two per day. I took the five sections over the course of three days. I also matched up strong and weaker sections in a day if possible. In the worst case scenario, you will likely get a win each day as a confident builder. You can also strategize your toughest section. Will it be easier to take if you take a related section in the morning and the tougher section in the afternoon? Or should you hold what you expect as the toughest section and take it by itself one day?

I took one test before lunch and one after. Having a meal break in between helped me regroup, relax, and review.  One funny point about passing the last test. I took the last section in the morning and went to lunch at a restaurant. I sat down and then remembered I had left my parts 1-5 CRM study materials in the car and would have to go back and get them. Then it dawned on me after studying for 9 months and having my prep materials with me at all times, I could finally take a little break before going after part 6. Studying had become an ingrained habit.

I guess my final advice summarizing all of the above is, "To thine own self be true".
