Unfortunately, the current exam guidelines require that all questions come from content in the class training materials, so the exam has to cover some items that may not be widely used. Conversely, if there is common knowledge that is not covered in the course materials, the topic can't be included as a question on the exam.<br /><br />I've only used Process Server once, and I've never used Report Scheduler, but they still stick around in the training materials, so I always expect them on the exam.<br /><br />And as for the Word Templates, in typical MS fashion, new product features often have questions on the exam. Several years later, if the feature is a dud and is never used, those exams questions seem pretty odd.<br /><br />SteveSteve Endowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950475674093020502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6691994129222744759.post-2811269586208006652010-09-10T07:19:20.290-07:002010-09-10T07:19:20.290-07:00Steve,

Second guessing myself on questions I am not 100% sure about will typically not help my score. <br /><br />I was a little surprised at the number of questions on this exam that have absolutely nothing to do with a typical implementation of GP (at least in my experience). Process Server, Word Templates, etc. <br /><br />Even though I didn't time it, I know that I waited over an hour to start my exam (there was a computer error!), but once I started it took no more than half an hour. And exactly like you, I had an 'incomplete' on one question that expected 2 answers. I wonder if there is a problem with that question (it was in the 20's I think), because I was pretty sure I picked 2 answers for it.<br /><br /><i>-Victoria</i>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
