After a few minutes, we were called back to a check-in desk one at a time. The woman there explained the testing process, then checked my pockets and used a metal detector to check for cheating implements. She gave me a few sheets of scratch paper and 2 pencils, then escorted me into the testing room. The testing room contained about 20 cubicles and there were approximately 10 people in the room.
The testing system is very easy to use - my favorite part is the mark out feature. You can mark out the answers you know are incorrect and it will stay marked out even if you come back to the question later.
I went through all 225 questions in about 2 hours, answering all of them with my best guess, but marked about 25 of them for review. I took a short break then came back and looked over the marked questions again. I probably changed the answers on 3 of the questions, then pressed the button to score the exam. Even though I was warned ahead of time that the screen would turn white after you press the score button, it was still scary. I thought I was going to have a heart attack! The scoring seemed to take FOREVER! I used this time to say my prayers, because I didn't feel confident at all.
When the word 'Pass' appeared on that screen I almost couldn't believe it! Thank God!
I finished the test at 3:00pm ~ 2.5 hours total test time.
Then I called my family and went home to celebrate! Woohoo! :)
About the test - I felt that there was a good mix of all of the subjects we studied. Despite all the preparation, there were still concepts/terms I didn't remember seeing anywhere. I think having a good vocabulary and good test taking skills helped me on these questions.
The most important advice I can give you is to really understand the concepts to the point where you could put them into practice. Don't just study the glossary. Try to use the concepts at work so you have a deeper understanding of the material. Talk about them with a supportive group of people. Test, test, test and don't give up even if you fail. You can do it! :)
