Can I Reset My Results or Clear My History?
No. There is no reset control, no clear-all, and no way to remove a single sitting: your attempts are not yours to delete. The record empties itself instead, one attempt at a time, as each reaches the end of its retention.
Wanting a session that went badly to be gone is a reasonable thing to want. It is worth answering as a description of what the record is rather than as a convenience that has not been built yet, because the first is what is actually going on.
Who Can Remove a Recorded Attempt
Your account holds exactly one permission over results, and it is the permission to read your own. The list of attempts for an exam opens to you, and any sitting in it can be read through again, for as long as the record lasts; an access period that has ended does not close it. There is no delete behind a menu, no reset in your account settings, and nothing that hides a sitting from the list while keeping it. Removing results is an administrative operation on the site rather than a setting in your account. The retention purge takes records away on a schedule without anybody deciding which attempt deserved to go.
Why Keeping a Poor Attempt Is Worth More Than Clearing It
The instinct to clear a bad sitting is understandable, and acting on it would throw away the most useful thing in the record. A poor attempt is only poor beside something else; on its own it is a number with nothing to compare it against. Troubleshooting a network works the same way, and every engineer already knows it. Two BGP sessions on one router, one established and one sitting in Active: the quickest route to the fault is rarely staring harder at the broken one. It is putting the two configurations side by side and reading what differs — a neighbour address that does not match the source the far end sees, a session sourced from a loopback with nothing telling it to be, an autonomous system number that was right for last month’s design. None of that comparison is available against a peer you have deleted. A run of practice attempts is the same instrument, and the sitting where your last third fell apart is the failing half of the pair.
Your history is not a profile you curate. It fills as you sit networking certification exam sessions, it empties on its own timetable, and the attempts you would least like to keep are the ones that make the rest of it worth reading.
