   That reminds me. For extra, I only did one section at a time until I got up   
   over 80% competency, then moved to the next section. Only after hitting 80%   
   in each section did I start using the complete pool.

   80% on practice exams is fine. It's feasible that you'll get a bad exam and   
   fail, but that won't happen twice. I used the 80% mark on all three exams and   
   passed all three of them on the first try. My son did the same and scored   
   higher on all three exams than I did.
