Can someone who has taken the CEMC give me some pointers please. I barely passed the practice exam and would like advice before I sit for my exam.

Thank you for any help!!
 
Have you studied the MDM table? The more you memorize from the table, the quicker you'll be at pulling out the elements and levels. Just break it down by the elements (problem, data, risk) and don't forget to consider time as well. Code to the highest level supported regardless of whether it ends up being MDM or time. Have you looked up the AMA 2021 or 2023 changes document that explains it in detail and give definitions of each problem type? That helps break it down as well. My best advice is take it element by element. I finished the test with about an hour to spare and got into my head thinking I must've done something wrong if I had that much time. Don't second guess yourself. Don't leave any questions blank as well if you do run out of time.
