Hi guys,
Here is the 202 summary.
LPIC-2
NOTE ON WEIGHTING: The weighting on all LPIC-1 and LPIC-2 exams has been
normalised to 60. This means that each exam will be 60 questions
long (unless you have "beta" questions for QA purposes; then it
will be 75 questions). This also means that a weighting of 3
on an objective indicates that there will be exactly 3 questions
on the exam pertaining to that objective (again with the "beta"
question caveat).
NOTE: The 1. and 2. prefixes have been dropped for this revision. Any time
the a 1.xxx.y or 2.xxx.y objective is cited, it refers to the old
objectives. When the original objective is not mentioned, the
current objective is the same number with the prefix dropped.
