Hi Guys, I am quite happy to share with you that I cleared my Flex 4 ACE exam with 79% today morning. I wished I scored a notch higher.
I feel for me it's not just clearing the exam, but getting better acquainted with the technology that is important. I took my own time in preparing for the exam objectives and I enjoyed learning through this stuff and am quite fascinated by the range of topics covered be it understanding the layout manager, skinning architecture or air security or messaging, data management and in fact everything and the amount of thought that has gone through designing and architechting Flex. As for the exam: The pattern of questions were single choice, multi-choice mentioning number of correct answers to choose, multi-choice without mentioning the number of correct answers to choose. Some of the questions were quite tricky and thought provoking. The sad part is despite the challenge, of these one or two questions have no proper answer from the choices provided (I bet they have no answer) and some in an attempt to frame tricky questions by Adobe, one or two questions were ambiguous in the question itself, and even if you know either way of answering the question, you end up unable to choose an answer for the question is not clear. There were few surprise questions regarding Model driven development, invoking native process(AIR), native installer(AIR), LCDS stuff (unrelated to synchronization or paging) which are not part of 'Topic Areas and Objectives' of the exam. Do you use Attest both 2 and 3 in practicing for the exam for they give an idea and prepare you to cover the range of topics, varieties the questions that can popup. In Attest 3, I found the links for preparing exam objectives are not very handy and sometimes comprehensive too. I will update this thread for my blog link, where I will be posting documentation references and links objective wise as per what I could make out at the minimum. Frankly, this took me some time to figure out where to find what to cover all topics, objectives of the exam. For Livedocs for Flex is I feel quite huge and comprehensive, and you cannot afford to read through each and everything of it. So that is all what I can think of to share with you all presently. Bye, Ram Manoj Kongara. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Flex India Community" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
