| Hi all,
I took both tests today and passed. Does anyone know how the scoring is
done. I scored 569 on the OS and 696 on the Hardware.
I had 80 questions on each and each has a "Scaled range of 100 to 900".
The passing score was 505 for the OS and 515 for the Hardware.
I knew I would do better on the hardware, but I'm suprized by the
seemingly low score on the OS. While taking both tests, I thought I was
doing pretty good. I spent about 25 minutes on each and had maybe 5
questions on each that I guessed on.
As for the test, it was a pretty even mix of items. It didn't ask a
bunch of questions that would be useless in the real world like many
practice tests do. In fact, it was easier than most of the practice
tests. To my relief, there were no trick questions and the ones with
more than one choice told you how many to choose.

Well done mate, i wouldn't be too bothered about the score after all I
passed with a tiny score of 527 (op) and 555 (hardware) I suppose it's
more about experience!
