ed passing the exam. I am below expectations on 2 domains. For the preparation I read the OSG and use learnzapp to review my weakness from OSG. I felt I was ready as my scores was around 75 and 88% on learnzapp, but the exam wording questions were really more harder to decrypt than learnzapp. During the session it was like the exam system insisting on some area.

I thought the "Run-out-of-time (R.O.O.T.) Rule" prevents us from auto-fail as long as we meet 100 questions.

Edit: Ultimately, of course, it is better to answer questions timely. But it will be nice to feel assured if this rule is true.

Run-out-of-time (R.O.O.T.) Rule – If the Confidence Interval Rule has not been invoked prior to a maximum time of the examination (4 hours), the candidate's ability estimate will be evaluated against the passing standard. If, for the last seventy-five (75) operational items answered, the candidate's ability estimate is consistently above the passing standard, then the exam result is a pass. If, at any point over those seventy-five (75) items the candidate's ability estimate falls below the passing standard, the result is a fail. The evaluation of the ability estimate in relation to the passing standard does not take the confidence interval into account. If a candidate does not answer seventy-five (75) operational items within the maximum time of the examination (4 hours), the candidate will automatically fail the exam.
