Passed VCP 5 Delta Test
I passed my VCP 5 Delta test today. Here are some of my notes around it…
- Test was 65 Questions and you have 75 Minutes to complete it, I had about 15 Mins left.
- I passed my VCP5 in January of 2012 and I don’t believe there was one repeat question from that test
- I didn’t get any min max questions
- Lot of Virtual SAN Questions
-
Know your licensing Models and what features belong to what
- Don’t skip studying around vDP or vSphere Replication
- Really know vRealize Operations (aka vCOPS) badges and how they are calculated (I got at least 3 questions on this)
- The questions seem to be longer in length and more multiple choice / select all correct << Not my favorite type
-
I would say I passed for two reasons
- It was open book, how nice was that! So have your best documents and guides ready
-
I followed the blue print, read my documents, and made sure I read every ‘Note’ section
- Here is an example of the Notes section. I’ve found that some questions on the test that usually come from this sections like this.
