Regarding MCP Exam

Can somebody tell me that if a person gives a exam for second time, then exam
is difficult than first? or it doesn't matter whether its first time or
second time.

Please reply soon.

Thanks

I don't believe anybody will tell you this, we should be violating the NDA,
just keep on studying.

The only answer I can give is this: Many people might be better prepared
when taking a test for a second time vs the first time. This applies to
Microsoft exams, 7th grade math tests and any other form of testing. If
you want to know Microsoft specifics, no one can give you that. When
you take your first exam, you will understand why -- READ the
non-disclosure agreement.

Good luck,

Mehek:
When you take an exam a second time, you will get a new set of questions,
although if you are extremely lucky you may get a couple of questions that
are the same. I think the question selection is somewhat random within each
major skill area. Any random number generator will return the same number (in
this case, the same question) occasionally. (That is just common sense and
not a violation of the NDA.)

What is a difficult question for one person may be an easy question for
another, and vice-versa. Thus, even if we did know what questions you were
given the first time, and what questions you will be given the second time,
we wouldn't know if they would be easier or harder for you. Perhaps you got
all the hard [for you] questions the first time, and that is the reason you
failed. But then again, perhaps you got all the easy questions, and weren't
really ready to take the exam. I don't see how you would expect any of us to
know. To be safe, however, one should assume the latter to be the case, and
continue to study even harder.

Perhaps you chose the wrong [for you] study books. Like the questions
themselves, some people find some books to be better (more easily
understandable) than others. I like the Exam Cram series myself, but some
people hate them. Eventually you will find a study method that works best for
you.

My advice: take the result sheet you got the first time you took an exam,
and concentrate on the areas it says you are weak in, then continue to study
the rest of the "skills being measured" section of the Preparation Guide as
you will probably get different questions in the other skill sets as well.

Best wishes on your certification studies.

They are all difficult - just make that assumption and study and take the
test again.
