b. take many practice tests. I took full lenght test & it was very helpfull to check my performance.
c. i used the exam simulator which was very good tool to support my knowledge.
d. try & get some sleep the night before the exam.
My test Lessons Learned :
a. i completed the entire test with approximately 3 min. left. i reviewed the questions again and changed 10 % of my previous questions.
b. it was very diffucult for me to make a 4 hour English exam from the computer at the first tme attempt.

Project experience is important but not enough on its own. Helpful books and question banks to pass the test are important.
Thank you,
