Default Exam is released

Has anybody taken a look at the released exam? Does it look as bad as it did the day we took it?

I printed it, then burned it. I would have done that on test day but I didn't have a lighter.

My neurosis demanded that I objectively score myself based on how I believe I performed. I passed! I think I'm delusional.

There's no way I could objectively score myself. I've already forgotten so many of my answers that I would have no idea what my score could be.

Well, except that I'm getting zero points for question #13. It's easy to remember questions where my answer was "Guh?"

Agreed. I just gave myself 65 points. Based on my FAP experience, this means the SOA will probably give me about 20

I couldn't remember what number 13 was about, so I had to go look at it. Now I feel sick...
