I'd read-over the "Resource Management" pdf (if you have not done so already).

Based on your preparation, I'd say just relax, get a good night's sleep, and go in with a clear head.

I'm sure you'll do great - make sure to respond to this thread letting everyone know you passed!!!

Friends exam passed with 94

Thanks to this forum and threads regarding VCP exam.

if you setup and configured ESX with VC and you read resource pool/san config/server config pdf then I think these should be good enough to pass exam.

Working on Virtualization from last 2 years, setup 3 different virtual production network with HA/DRS, started preparing for this exam about 2 months ago and from last 2 weeks I gave at least 3-5 hrs a day for preparation.

Thanks Again

That's what I like about the VCP. It's not just a bunch of book certified people, but you actually need to have some experience to pass, unlike the MCP's.

Great stuff. Congrats...

Congrats! I'm taking mine tomorrow.

Awhile back, people have indicated that some questions were really hard to understand, and possibly written by a non-english speaker. have you encountered that at all?

Some of the questions are intentionally complicated. I guess this is an effort to see if you can think through them. Several seem to employ a double negative sort of construct. A handful are situations where there are more than one right answer, but one answer is more correct.

I didn't really encounter any situations where the questions just didn't make sense.

everything was clearly understandable.

I think VMware corrected this as when I took the mock test on vmware web site about 2-3 weeks ago wording was poor but when I took it yesterday wording was corrected so I think they might have corrected in VCP exam also.

Good Luck

That's great. how about all those poor fools (like me) that got a 69 when they took the test last year.... They re-worded the questions, I guess the older tests were not worded correctly????
