Failed my first attempt using a different platform and switched to Skillcertpro for my retake. Night and day difference. The questions here are much more aligned with the real exam format and the difficulty level is realistic. I also found the cheat sheet extremely useful, printed it out and reviewed it the morning of the exam. Passed comfortably the second time around
