I am not sure if this is on purpose. But in a few Visio-like questions, you have 2 "similar" choices. The only difference is that one of them is written with lower case and the other one with upper case!

This is NOT from exam. But only an example:

Execute Storage vMotion

Execute storage vMotion

The only difference is storage and Storage. Which one is the correct one for exam result algorithm?

Sure that the only difference is only for case?

Seems strange...
But remember that each product/technology name has a single way to be written...
For example vSphere, vSwitch, SVMotion or Storage VMotion, ...

PS: has your passed the Design Exam? Was it more difficult than the Admin Exam?

I am not 100% sure any more, when you ask like that :8}

Unfortunately I did not pass :( . I got 285 points. I try again immediately I receive authorization from VMware.

I would say that the design exam is easier than enterprise exam. I passed the enterprise exam first time. The reason I did not pass is that I got so excited that I overlooked some important details in questions (too much self-confidence). It resulted in wrong answers in a few questions that could change the whole story ;) . I felt all the time that I could pass the exam...

I do not find this case.
There was 2 question very similar, but with a different sentence.

I agree that the questions were very similar, but with different sentence. I saw that too.

I am talking about choices/boxes you use to answer the question. Every box contains a task. Two of those tasks were very similar. The only difference was upper and lower case.

Example:

Execute Storage VMotion

Execute storage VMotion

I haven't notice or probably I've got other questions.
