most of the questions were solvable only problem was to manage time for it....

the discount in negative marking came as the only suprise and a pleasent one.....

i did just ablut ok...
oa attempts 49

va:20
lr:17
qa:12


i guess just about 5 questions short from being in a comfortable situation

LR: 21 (I hope more than 90% accuracy)
QA : 8 (With 90% accuracy.)

Total : 42 attempts.....no chance...bbye XL....
