Tough... I was on question 24 when the fire alarm of the building went off. I thought with myself... "this is it, no way I will pass this exam" Prometric personnel had to evacuate both exam rooms and stop everybody's exams. We waited outside for almost 40 minutes until they clear the building.
Those 40 minutes waiting outside made me relax. At the end the results... Congratulations, you passed!

I studied Rita's book and Rita's Fast Track; also purchased PMZilla 200 toughest questions (they are really tough - my top score was 60%), PrepCast from Cornelius and PMStudy - only exams. I practiced over 2000 questions during four weeks prior the exam. Each incorrect question I went back and reviewed it carefully.

Most question on the exam were very close to the ones I practiced.

Hi,
Congrats!!!
From where you got the 2000 questions. Please help here. I am also planning to purchase some good set of practice question.

I purchased:
1) Rita's Fast Track (1500 questions). You can buy that for $75 for three months.
2) Prepcast from Cornelius Fichtner. You get 8 full 200 questions exams + quizes
3) PMStudy: 4 full sets of 200 questions tests.
4) 200 PMZilla Tough questions

FREE resources
a) 175 questions from Oliver Lehmann - This one is FREE
b) PMStudy offers you 3-day trial of a FREE 200 questions exam
c) PrepCast also offers you the same as PMStudy.

If you're member of PMI, you have access to Books 24x7. There you can download more free questions

The key for passing is practice, practice and practice. Most questions on my exam were very close to the ones I practiced. For those questions you get wrong, go back to them, review them carefully, refer back to the PMBOK5, Rita's book, etc. Question yourself why you got them wrong and understand the rationale behind the question.

Hope this helps. It worked for me. Good Luck
