Know the material, and use good time management skills during the exam.

Don't spend more than 10 minutes on your lab sims. If you can't do the sim in 10 minutes or less move on. If it takes you 20 minutes to finally get the sim right you'll probably miss more points on not finishing the exam than points lost skipping the lab.

I remember someone posting the bold statement that if you completely fail a single simulation question it can result in an overall failing mark. Do you think there is anything truth to that?

Well, I completely failed the first sim I came across but still (barely) managed to pass. I think I pretty much nailed everything else though. I feel that my score would have been in the 950's if I got that sim right.

They let you know right then and there if you failed the SIM?

No, I'm assuming he realized he failed by majorly screwing it up

No, but you can pretty much determine it by looking at the score report for the corresponding section.

It is theoretically possible to pass the exam after totally messing up or skipping a sim, but you had better make sure you finish the exam and do really well on the rest.
