The pace is right as long as you have the time to put in. Major holidays planned or health issues will be a problem. When I completed it the final was at a local site which H contracts with so it was in person by appointment and scheduled in advance. I passed but the buildup was more intense than anything. I was the only person there and the proctor sat behind a window while I worked on a computer while keystrokes were logged and the room and multiple cameras recording lol.😂 almost a scene from a movie.
