Regarding the number of questions on a given exam: For lesser certifications (lotus, microsoft, NAI, checkpoint, nortel, novell) i can sometimes get away with spending 10 seconds or less on each question, allowing me to squeeze a certification exam into an otherwise implausibly short timeslot. This comes in handy (& saves a potential complete waste of an exam fee) when your boss refuses to allow you more than 20 minutes away from the office because of a major frame relay outage.
So, sometimes advance knowledge of the number of questions a given exam uses (or even the knowledge that it is adaptive and not fixed) can, in limited circumstances, come in handy.

I was just commenting on the categorization of topics. Saying that there are just four topics (HDLC, connectionless models, IOS backups, and troubleshooting) is obviously screwed up. Cisco used to say that in all their documentation about CIT. They are slowly fixing it in some places. I don't care how many questions are on the test and can't understand why anyone else cares either.
