EX288: Is there anyone that recently passed the v4.12?

[Murillo]

Hi everyone,

Is there anyone that passed the EX288 recently? I just failed my attempt including the retake, incredible.

Besides the fact of working with containers for 3 hours, I still get 0% on the topic "working with containers" LMFAO.

I understand I need to do this test in alignment with what Red Hat expects, but solving the mysteries of what is written in the questions is beyond the scope.

I am not encouraging any developer from my team to do this exam until we fine-tune these exam scores and balance. 

Please share with me something.....  =]

@theaney After the 2nd ( free ) attempt - if you dont pass then for all subsequent exams you will have to purchase it separately. 

No there is no time frame to wait for any subsequent attempts. 

In any case you can always reach out to exam support for any help / guidance / official response in these matters : https://rhtapps.redhat.com/comments

Congrats!! I didn't like it in the very beginning, now I am waiting for the 4.14 to be released so I can try it once more! hahaha =]

The learning experience is what matters...

I just wanted to give an update that I finally passed the EX288 but I still think it is not a well designed exam and there is much to do in order to improve it. At least the grading need to be reviewed because I think it is very problematic. Still not worthy my recommendation

[Murillo]

Well done!! The questions are tricky, we tend to think the way we do things, I recognized my mistakes and BTW, it was a great profissional challenge and exercise! 

All the best!

I am trying to decide if I need to register for the V4.10 or V4.12. I am gleaming from this discussion that there is a difference between the two versions in terms of the scope of the examination, although they are both supposed to cover the same material with the obvious version changes. I have attempted EX280 2 times and failed and very much sympathize with the common sentiment of the exam questions being a puzzle in themselves. 

Nonetheless, I am motivated to clear EX288, but would appreciate any of your experienced guidance in terms of the differences between the two versions in terms of the exam content and if there is a difference between the Specialist exams and the plain Openshift Developer exam, as shown in the image below. If any exam takers/ redhat support can enlighten me on the clear difference between the two and if there are differences in the level of challenge between the two versions, it would help me very much.
