I can't remember off the top of my head--which is it?

I'm weighing my options of whether to go ahead & try my Killian next Friday (the 11th), even though I've been really sick. If I don't take it then, the next test date is Feb. 8. Which is exactly 4 weeks later......so, that makes 28 days. So--if I go ahead & try it for the 11th, and fail, could I retry it on the 8th? Or would that be 1 day short of the rule?

You are allowed to re-take the test exactly 4 weeks from the first test date, so if you test on a Friday, you can re-test on the Friday 4 weeks from that date, which would be Feb. 8 (I think that's exactly why they offer tests every 28 days; my club does the same thing).

Here's hoping the Leap Year day doesn't mess up anyone's test schedule. lol
