Would you:
a. Take it anyway and pray?
b. Try to cram for another exam and take it on Thursday instead? Choices on this are social science and history or human growth and development.
Oh, and you've got a sinus infection with fever.
In all seriousness, this is my current situation, any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm thinking of taking the Petersons human growth practice test tonight to see how I do... maybe go from there...

Sounds like you have three variables at work.
1. Take it and not pass = wait 6 months for another shot.
2. If NOT ready do NOT take it anyway.
3. Illness will hinder your study - good heath will increase it.
In any event, I hope that your health improves so as to get a better grasp of the material allowing you to sit the exam and pass the first time!!
