I have of late come across a number of threads in this forum that explain to the effect that the exam has gotten harder. I wonder if Maha, or the very perpetrators of this fact, shed more light as what this means.Sometimes as I read the threads I get the understanding that you want to say the exam database has changed, and sometimes it looks like it has both changed and become tighter ? In the latter case, I wonder whether it means it has gotten beyond the scope of the published objectives. Please I want someone to elaborate this because I guess there are many others like me who feel suddenly unprepared for the exam by the mere essence of this message.
Thanks,
Herbert

Herbert,
, just now I passed the exam. That was pretty easy and it was easier than our Rules roundup!!
Nothing to worry about the difficulty of the exam. The questions were very similar to the ones in most of the mock tests. If we take more mock tests, the exam will become more easier I suppose!!
Regards,
Suresh.

Herbert,
If there's a harder version of the exam, I didn't get it either when I tested Thursday.

Herbert,
I far as I can say, the real exam qstns are bound within the official objectives and more clearly worded. From Maha's experiance, what I can say is, I was always under the threat of, what if Sun will announce a new set of objecives, just before taking the exam like that. Especially in the last week of preparation I felt that. That was the concern. Otherwise the qstns asked in the exam under all objectives are clear and you can very well answer them if you can follow the discussions here I think.
