1. Practice with sample questions to get a feel for the exam format

[{"selector":"#anim-75b0200e-8728-491d-8684-1fa9be08b63e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-aac864bd-3f59-44f3-9146-193ae2650f94","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(125.29644%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

3. Allocate approximately 75 to 76 minutes for each parts

[{"selector":"#anim-fe999e71-27c7-4ba7-8e43-ba3e25042a61","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e03c4b1d-f5bb-4f12-ad51-06249788bf0b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(132.35294%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

4. Allocate your time wisely, with about 1.5 minutes per question

6. Always answer every question, including those you select for review, because you may run out of review time

7. Ensure these time-based milestones in the exam: -Reach Q60 at 1 hr 15 min -Reach Q120 at 2 hr 40 min -Reach Q180 at 3 hr 50 min

[{"selector":"#anim-6197c68a-8a13-4050-8a78-06af26999f6e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f3206c54-6d30-45d1-b418-082d5845626e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(128.92564%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]
