Thanks, now I feel better. I thought I was losing it for a while ;) I
guess when you acquire 5 or 6 security companies every year, you end up
with a lot of potential test questions. A couple questions on the test
had 3 letter acronyms I'd never heard of. Can't discuss them, nor even
remember what they were at this point, but I was surprised to find stuff
that new...

I agree,
that test really sucks.........I thought it was much harder than the R/S
by
a long shot, and that was even after being a CCSP for awhile. Another
test
which sucks is the optical exam for the SP track, barely passed that one
too...they are getting harder and harder to pass these days.
