Well, I had my first fail this morning.... 50 questions and 2.5 hours later…628. 

  I have never ran out of time on a test before today.  I felt really confident about 1/2 way into the test, I had only marked 3 items for review, but somewhere between 1/2 and 3/4 I lost a lot of time and I spent the last 1/4 to 1/3 of the test not being able to devote enough time to fully understanding each question.  Perhaps with more studying I can learn to understand what they are asking more quickly.  I felt like I knew the concepts they were asking, just felt rushed towards the end.  It was especially annoying  that in between a few of the questions I had about a 1-2 minute delay instead of the typical 10 second delay I’ve experienced on the last few MS exams.  Didn’t eat up a lot of time but didn’t help my stress level either…no one’s fault but my own though.
I will say I had about 6 or 7 sims and a few drag and drops on top of those.    Lots of NLB and CA questions on mine .  Well, thank goodness for second shot offers!  I’ve got some travel coming up, but I’m going to try to fit it in by the end of the month.
