Dear Friends,
I am supposed to take the exam shortly.
These are my scores in the mockexams I have taken
I want to know if I am ready and where do I stand
Marcus #1:69%
Marcus #2:70%
Marcus #3:70%
RHE : 65%
Hunt : 60%( First mock exam I took)
I found Bill Brodgen's online exam tough
Thanks in advance

Sandy, usually scores on Marcus Green exam considered to be very close to what may be expected. Since passing score is only 61% you have good chances to pass. There are two potential dangers, which can reduce your real score:
1) stress
2) shortage of time
The last may play significant role if you do not have solid prior programming experience, i.e. did not developed ability to analyze pieces of code quickly.
In any case, the best way to improve your score is to take as many mock exams as possible.
Also, for further participations, please read this post about our official naming policy.
Good luck on your exam!

Sandy,
I wouldn't go for the exam with the scores that you mention,
and having given the exam I feel, you can work a little more
to be there at 80% or so, bill brodgen's test is tougher than
the real exam, but it makes u think a lot more, and to me, that
kind of qstns helped me in the real exam.
Not to say you wouldn't pass with the current scores, I barely passsed in Bill's test ( I was not well when I took the test though), got around 88% in Green's tests, almost never crossed 90% in mocks but got 93% in real one, bcos I was more alert in
the real one.
all the best.
 
please buy this thing and then I get a fat cut of the action:
