Is CLAD real much more difficult than CLAD on-line free demo?

[Rashid-Malik]

I am about to give CLAD offline (there is no testing center here and a NI representative would be coming to take the CLAD exams of four of us). We / I have practiced the free on-line version of CLAD exam at NI site. I have heard that the real exam is much more difficult. Is this true? What is the diference between the two? (Like passing marks etc).

Thanks for the help!

The proctored CLAD exam is slightly more difficult than the on-line version. Some of the questions from the on-line exam were on the test as were some of the questions from the example exam. If you handled the material in those two exams well, you should pass. To get 70%, you can get 12 out of the 40 wrong. My feeling while taking the test was that there was no way I had 12 wrong because there are enough easy questions. It's a good test because it forces you to learn some trivial details you may not have paid attention to before.
