I have just taken my first attempt at the PMP Exam and I passed all domains except for one and that caused me to fail the test. Focus and practice ITTO's for all domains it is crucial to be able to establish what portion of the project the question is placing you in because it does not out right state it.
Sorry to hear you did not pass the first time.
I looked back at my PMP exam results. I had 1 below proficient, 3 moderately proficient and 1 at proficient. I passed.
So the algorithm may allow for 1 below proficient if it is offset by the other domains. This was before the current way of displaying your results. It did not tell me any more than just the pie chart. The bar now shows you where you are on the pass scale. Where you right on the line? And the Domain performance should tell you what you need to work on.
The good thing is that now you know what to expect and the second time should be easier in regards to time management and understanding how questions can be worded.
You will get it next time. Just focus on the areas you did not do well in.

Yes ITTO's are tricky. I recall many questions where ITTO's were asked about. The best way to learn them is to look at the process flows in the various PMBOK diagrams and understand when and where ITTO's are used. You will start to see patterns and consistencies. At least you know what to focus on. The hard part is over, so study up your weak points and you will do fine. Good luck.
