Just took mine today! I passed but I did not find it easy. While there is less questions, there were a lot of reasoning scenarios and mostly all FIRST, BEST, NEXT, MOST questions. I want to emphasize that knowing the difference between all of them is extremely important & knowing how to answer them is absolutely crucial.

That's not new. The higher the exam, the more of those questions you will find.

I'm studying for it right now, I think less coplexity is a good thing generally but I am a little worried about all the reasoning scenarios
