On Tuesday I sat the M257 exam, and I was a bit disappointed with my performance. Despite finishing in 2 hours on each of the practice papers I tried, when it came to the actual exam, I actually ran out of time (3 hours). This was due mainly to me taking a bit more care over the answers, and trying to write neater. I should have learned that this would happen from my M255 exam last year where I just managed to finish within the 3 hours.
I also made a bad choice of question in the second part, and chose the wrong one! In addition to making a few dumb errors on the first part.
Consequently, I think a distinction is out of the window this time, but still hope for the next best thing. I should find out by the end of July.
