Final question before I sit the exam tomorrow. Feeling well prepared and semi-confident! The online course I did had 5 full practice tests on it and I did them all. However, they seemed to ask the question kinda of in order i.e. initiating questions first then, planning etc with closing questions last. Is the real exam structured this way? I'm presuming it's a bit more random.... but you never know, so after your guys impressions..... Saving Changes...

According to my understanding questions are randomly distributed throughout the different project management domains of Initiating, Planning, Executing, Monitoring and Controlling and Closing. Saving Changes...

I just took the test in December. The questions are random. Let me know if you have any more questions before your test. I would be happy to help.
I passed my exam in October. Questions are random. I went thru the exam marked all my math and critical path questions and completed them at the end of the test. This enabled me to stay focused. Please let us know your thoughts and input of the test. Saving Changes...

They are definitely randomely distributed and your exam is different that the exam of the person beside you. It is drawn randomly from a pool of questions as far as I know. Saving Changes...
There are adequate answers to your question already. Just wanted to wish you the best of luck and provide the following tip: Visit the washroom before you begin. Chances are the testing room will have the air conditioner on at full blast and you really don't want to skip out of the room while your exam clock ticks on.

Went to the test centre this afternoon - NO air conditioning so likely to be a hot and humid test! Urgh. If the windows are open I'll have to cover myself in mosquito repellent! Thanks for the advice.
Questions will be random as everyone said. There are two approaches to attempt the exam.
1. Quick pass attempting the easier and shorter questions and marking longer ones for later review.
2. Be thorough from the very start and be ready to experience jumps from topic to topic.
Both works, just remain calm during exam.
Goodluck. Saving Changes...

very weird. Here in Mumbai, India we had AC running at full blast. I had a sweater on all through the test and was still feeling cold.
However, I am sure you will acclimatize to the conditions within few mins of starting the exam. All the best and do let us know about your results.
