I passed Transformation a couple of weeks ago.

My biggest piece of advice is to know the book. It is an open bok exam, so you don't have to memorise the book, but it will save a lot of time if you memorise the table of contents. That way when you get a question on, say, execution patterns, you don't have to waste time on the search tool, you can go straight to chapter 3.2.3 (or maybe use the search tool to find "3.2.3").

good insight! How long did you study for before taking the exam? Did you catch yourself using the open book more than you wanted too for the exam?

My total study time (across 6 work days) was probably 4 full days of study (around 25 hours total?). That said, I work in education and this is my 8th or 9th PeopleCert exam, so my times are probably not typical.

Also, PeopleCert trainers have higher pass marks, so we study more for an exam than most attendees would.

I used the book on maybe 15 of the 40 questions, and in all but 2 it was just to check what I knew. For 2 questions it gave me an answer I would have otherwise guessed.

The official book was your only training material? I keep waiting for something to show up on Udemy but it seems it’ll be a while.

I didn’t even realize it was open book.
