Tough exam topics

Just wondering which topics others have struggled with on this exam. I am still in preparation mode and am always on the lookout for tips to try to conquer the exam on my first try. I know everyone seems to hate the XML topic, but are there other topics that seemed challenging to you? Thanks in advance!
