    If I could be so bold as to suggest another resource for you. I'm the CTO at http://www.ipassexam.com/ and we have mock exam/ practise questions for all the Google exams.

    I believe the Adwords revision question bank perfect for verifying if you are ready. Hope you agree (if you want reviewer access please let me know)

    Just passed the Fundamentals portion with a 96% (second attempt). I missed it the first time around with 83%. I am not in the business and have never managed AW accts, but want to get into the space. I thought is was very tough. The questions are all multiple choice and phrased in ways that really make the answers hard to dig out. You need to read each question and answer very carefully and look for "gotcha words" that rule out most of the potential answers. Lots of "how to optimize" certain campaigns along with almost every other feature covered at length. Contact me directly for more info. I audio tape-recorded my first test then transcribed the questions from which I dug out all the answers. That REALLY helped cuz all the questions came back again. pintar.michael@gmail.com
