I probably answered 18 right...but then again, traps and mistakes along the way, you can never tell. All i know is i studied my ass off for this, and i feel now that it didnt help whatsoever. The sample problems for new materials is nothing like the problems on the test. It was definitely an unfair exam. Probably couldve used another hour.

I totally agree with the posts here. Questions were way too long, and not representative of the syllabus, or the sample questions. Frustrating experience, to say the least.

When are people like you going to learn to not post things like that on here? If you felt confident on more than 22 questions then no one on here needs to hear it.

I did very well on the 300 (250) SOA sample questions and I think I totally BOMBED this exam. What on EARTH did the SOA do with this new syllabus? I've sat for this exam before. This time was TOTALLY different.

Sample questions made me think the majority of the exam remained unchanged but with some notation changes and say 10-15% new stuff. This exam seemed like OVER HALF was new material. Not representative of the sample questions AT ALL.

This seemed like a 4.5 hour exam. NOT 3 HOURS.

Actually I like to see how many people did REALLY well...so far I count two..which is a positive indicator for those riding fence

It's exams like this that keep me from EVER thinking I'll get my credentials. GOOD GOD. That was ridic.

Had 17 I found answers for, probably missed one or two of those. Then guessed on the rest.

I was scoring 90% and higher on ADAPT practice exams and was killing all their practice problems.

Looking back at this exam, whats the point in getting study materials?

In past exams I've sat for there are always a handful of "just show up and you can get these right" problems. I felt these were all very tricky, and there were a few I knew I could get, but definitely weren't 6 minute setups.

Anyone know what the historical pass mark is around? Anyone want to guess what they'll set this one as?

What the heck was that? I was an adapt level 8, 90% accuracy on Sample 300 and read through the ASM book and problems.

I may have gotten 14 questions correct. Completely guessed on 12 of them. Guess next time a good comparison would be the later ASM PEs. Some questions on this test took longer then the crazy ASM ones.

I'm curious to know if any other Adapt users believe they did well?
