The major part of them were pretty long to read and taking to account that many questions are tricky and you should read it attentively, I hardly managed to pass all the question within given time. 5 additional question it's almost 10% less time per question. Due to such a rash I had no time to check again questions marked to review later.</P><P>As a result I've got 68,5%. I'm sure that having 60 questions or at least a bit balanced length of them I could pass with 70%+. This looks unfair, my coleagues passed it with 60 questions and question were balanced.</P> Mon, 12 May 2025 13:33:04 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/certifications/got-65-mostly-long-questions-and-hardly-managed-to-complete-exam/m-p/118906#M2913 AndriiS 2025-05-12T13:33:04Z https://community.databricks.com/t5/certifications/got-65-mostly-long-questions-and-hardly-managed-to-complete-exam/m-p/119023#M2914 <H4><SPAN>Hello&nbsp;<a href="https://community.databricks.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/164151">@AndriiS</a>&nbsp;</SPAN><SPAN><BR /></SPAN><SPAN>As stated on the </SPAN><A href="https://www.databricks.com/learn/certification/terms-and-conditions#exam-policies" target="_blank"><SPAN>Exam Webpage</SPAN></A><SPAN>: </SPAN><SPAN><BR /></SPAN><SPAN>Exams may include unscored items to gather statistical information for future use.

So not so bad done from DB.</P> Sat, 07 Jun 2025 21:03:29 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/certifications/got-65-mostly-long-questions-and-hardly-managed-to-complete-exam/m-p/121193#M3042 AndriiS 2025-06-07T21:03:29Z https://community.databricks.com/t5/certifications/got-65-mostly-long-questions-and-hardly-managed-to-complete-exam/m-p/121194#M3043 <P><a href="https://community.databricks.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/164151">@AndriiS</a>&nbsp;did you get any help from Databricks regarding voucher or anything on your retake?
