I know that my brother-in-law swears that about every other question on his
exam was BGP....... I had quite a few.... probably 20% or maybe more......
But aren't these exams adaptive? I.E. if you miss "preliminary" questions
on a topic, you'll get more of them....... I don't know personally, but it
seems to be they are because there were times I'd get 100% in an area and
know that I only got 3 or 4 questions on that topic...... then others that
I'd get 70% in I remembered getting more questions about that topic......
Can anyone confirm/deny this "adaptive" theory?
