Passed Unit 5 & 6, failed unit 4. Plus side, the spirit exam is the one I was the most concered about and that is the one I failed.

Stupid bison grass vodka.

I can and will retake the exam. Not sure if it will be in 07 or 08.

    Do you actually taste test during this exam? Wouldn’t that impair your judgement after a while? ;-P

    Hey, you passed two exams! That’s good news!

    You get to have spirit exams? Sweeeeeeeet. I wanna get tested on Spirits!

    It’s a theory and tasting exam. And at all professional tastings you spit everything.

    It is a Diploma in Wine and Spirits. Passed the theory part, just blew it on the tasting. Didn’t practice it enough.

    It doesn’t help that one of the things you had to taste isn’t really available anywhere in the US…

    Aw, sorry that you didn’t make it through Unit 4!!

    Do you have to retake all three together when you retake, or do you get to keep the passes on units 5 & 6?

    The good part is I just have to take the one exam.

    “Young lady, you obviously did not drink enough before this exam.”

    Why couldn’t college have been more like that?

    Cause if college was this much fun, we never would have left.

    Congratulations on passing 5 & 6. Sorry about 4, but as you said you can resit it, so it’s not the end of the world.

    Still a long wait until I’ll know about Unit 3…

    Understand your pain. Good luck.
