Yes I believe there will be some SDM questions in the exam, my Cisco book certainly covers the topic. I am taking the exam this coming week so I can let you know then.

I just took it today, yes absolutely, know how to do everything in SDM.

Learn SDM well (Firewall & s2s VPN etc) also learn IPSec Phases and the cryptograpic algorithms amongst others
