• This time you can find more questions about techniques and strategies. So, be prepared for advanced level of optimization techniques.
• There were some really tough questions related to MCC, MCC account hierarchy & AdWords API, so do work hard in this area.
• You should have a good understanding of Analytics. There will be questions related to Google analytics covering topics like Goal, funnels, filters etc. AdWords Learning Center material has already covered these topics so you should not be worried about it. Also, analytics related questions will not be tough for you if you have hands-on experience in this area.
• There will be a good number of questions related to billing, payments, account access level and account management, so read these topics carefully.
• For some answer choices, it may seem that two of the four options are both possibly correct answers. However, because you may choose only one answer, you must discern which answer is the best choice. So, I would advise you to read all the options carefully before answering the question in one go without reading the other options. So, READ ALL THE OPTIONS carefully.
• Never leave a question blank. There is no negative marking & it is better to guess than to leave an answer blank. As you move through the exam and you find questions that stump you, you the “Mark Question [M]” option in the testing center browser, choose an answer you suspect may be correct, and then move on. When you have answered all of the questions, you are given the option to review your marked questions.
• Don’t waste your time in laboring over one question as difficult questions & easy questions are worth the same importance in your exam.
• You have to download the Google testing center browser to start your test & when launched, the Testing Center Browser opens to a full screen which will prevent you from navigating to other web pages or windows. Existing applications will be suspended while the browser is running. So, don’t think of cheating
