I took the exam a couple of weeks back and found it really challenging and almost impossible to pass without instructor led training.

How was your experience?

I took the webinar and did the labs, and such, and after te course attempted it 3 times, the first and second time getting 72% scores and 70% on the third try, I went to bed, and reviewed the notes and slides the next morning and passed with a 90%, it was pretty awesome since it was free and gave me 8 CPEs and a 'cert'.

What part(s) did you find the most challenging?

The test, the labs were fairly straight forward and simple. the test is open book, and you can use the notes and such, but I did not do this. you need 75% or more to pass and have 5 attempts.

The issue with the test is that there is no feedback mechanism upon failing, you simply get a score and pass/fail, so it doesn't let you know which questions you're correctly answering and which you're not or what your weakpoints are.

Furthermore some questions are very open ended, like select all of the things you can do with data from tool X:
and then there are 5 options, and you're not certain if you need to choose 1,2,3,4, or all 5.
