I had my exam today and I don't really feel all that great about it.  I got through the multiple choice questions really quickly - all 3 testlets within the 1st hour.  The testlets may have gotten somewhat harder because I had marked down more questions for review on booklet 2 than 1 and more on 3 than 2.  However, it was not a very blatant increase as some people have indicated.  This makes me nervous, its either I knew most of the stuff or I had no idea what was going on a made a lot my previous common mistakes.

The simulations were palatable, but I don't think I did that great.  I think I wrote down the main points in the communication tab for both and I think I got the two research tabs correct.  The the other parts however were not that great.  One I had no idea what to do even though I put down some things that were probably wrong.  The second other parts was easier but still it had one tab that I forgot how to calculate.  I don't know the quickness of the multiple choice questions really scares me and the sims terrify me.  I have BEC on 8/29 and I will start studying that on Monday. For now, I guess I will just have to wait and see.

Amit, my suggestion is to forget about "REG" for a while and focus on "BEC". Sometimes, the wait for scores affects the studies of the upcoming exam....

You would do well... Don't worry ! BTW, how much time did you spend on REG?

I turned it off with 4 minutes to go.  I didn't think that those extra few minutes would have done anything for me.  I gave the sims all I had within the time I used.

I turned mine off with 6 minutes to go because I was going round and round on that list sim.  For some odd reason, the research tab tripped me up and then it was downhill from there.  I spent too much time working on that part so the other areas suffered.  My strategy is to tackle the research/communicaton tabs first.  Overall, I feel good about it.  On to FARE for me!

I received my score today (98!). Just wanted to bump the thread to show that even if you feel your testing experience was a disaster, it can all work out in the end.

Goodluck to everyone on passing the exam!
