Yes, actually some other tests (I guess most of them) force you to answer some questions before the actual test begins. Word is out that depending on your questions the test comes harder or easier (at least on non-ccie tests). Truth is Cisco gives 0 points to some questions, being the mechanics to choose the "null" questions a mistery.
For example, take my CCNP's "routing" exam. I had to take it twice (last year without IS-IS) and a couple of months ago (with IS-IS). I barely made it even though I was sure only about seven or [at most] ten questions were answered with doubts. The test was comprised by 63 questions (I guess the number of questions varies also). Taking for granted I made it with some (very few) points over the lowest passing score [at the time] they force you to answer >84% of the questions correctly. This is based on my test and is hardly a generalization. Cisco says the scores to pass vary depending on several factors (being the "too many pass" an important one).
