Thank you!
Hey Rip, just got the results, I did not pass my essay. I just wanted to say thank you for not lowering your standard and holding it so high. I put the best I had into that essay and the feedback I got let me see where I can get better and I have a lot of learning to do! I was at a cert by StrongFirst, their barbell cert (gift from my grandmother, I did not pay for it) and everyone in the room passed -- it was a joke. I threw the paper in the garbage when I got home cause it meant nothing. When I finally pass my SSC it will mean something and I know I will have earned something of REAL value! It's hard putting your best into something and being told still not good enough. I realize though I am not there yet. After a weekend of "pay the $, show up, and pass" I have the utmost appreciation for your standard and I just want to say thank you for being the real deal in a industry of fakes! Thank you for pushing the rest of us to be better!

It'll be there, Anthony. This is a refreshing departure from the bitching we sometimes get from people who don't pass. You're a good coach and a good guy, and we'll keep after you till you're ready. See you soon.

I thought people only get 1 chance to take the test? Are there multiple / unlimited number of attempts allowed to everyone or to specific people whom the SS staff deem worthy to take the test a second time? I thought I read that there is only one chance somewhere on another thread. May you please clarify this for me Rip?
Thanks!

Anthony will have a chance to take a different test.

It would be the ultimate contradiction to the SS model for someone to only be allowed to test a limited number of times.
It would essentially be saying progress can't happen.

Tony,
Sorry to hear you came up short, but based on our brief chats, I know you're sincere in saying you appreciate the high standard and will cherish the credential when (not if - when) you succeed.
