It's also a multiple choice test. Those tend to guide you via phrasing, etc. "Never" and "Always" are really strong words that should be taken with caution and are often wrong, etc.

I got the same result, though I thought I'd had something wrong when difficulty started decreasing.

I have a history of getting way too good scores on multiple choice tests and it always makes me wonder if other people don't catch on to the clues or what's going on lol

I'm not too bright and jam on multiple choice. Had many teachers growing up who taught me how to work them.

It's more about eliminating wrong answers than knowing the correct one. And of 4, 1 or 2 are always obviously wrong. If you're totally bamboozled, go with your guy instinct, whatever your first answer was.

The IT world has been the only place I was presented with 3 or 4 close answers. Anything from MS, or derived from them, is frustrating as hell because you have to answer the "Microsoft way". A completely correct answer can be wrong.

I guess in those cases, you just have to learn to recognize the "Microsoft way". I luckily haven't had to. I came close to working with one of their ERPs (I believe they have or have had multiple), but the company ended up reorganizing and didn't hire anyone that round. Went to work with Odoo instead, which is an open source competitor, sorta (in both cases I'm talking about custom module developments at a consultancy; I don't work for Odoo itself and was never gonna work for M$). Now there's a nonzero chance I might start my own consultancy sometime in a year or 2, in which case I'll have to take the Odoo certification test and find 2 employees (friends at first most likely) to do the same, one of the criteria for silver level partnership which gets more visibility.

"That doesn't sound right" and "it can't be anything else but this one" I think I spotted for some of the questions.
