Hello all,

Wanted to write a short message to thank you and this forum for all the tips and guidances that I received - they were instrumental in helping me prepare - passed with 98.8% - so super chuffed!!! :)

Few points I would like to mention about my own prep.

One major difference is that a) I am PMP-ACP certified and b) I have been a Scrum Master to an Agile teams for many years - this I think helped alot with framing my answers.

I didn't buy any tests - just took repeatedly the free ones available including Mlapshin, Simon Kneafsey, Volkerden, and ofcourse Scrum Open repeatedly.

I wont repeat the obvious tips but I do want to share one test taking tip that I believe was given by Simon Kneafsey and Charles Bradley and that was to answer questions as if you are the Scrum Wizzard, aka the author of the Scrum Guide - this helps you pick "the best" answers where two might be "good" answers. 

Other than that - great load off my chest - once again thanks to all!

Best Regards and good luck to all aspirants!

Nabeel
