I Passed the Adobe Flex 2 Developer Exam!

Posted by Dennis on Apr 3, 2007 in Flex • 17 comments

I just took the Adobe Flex 2 Developer Exam and passed! I got an 80% score, though I expected it to be higher when I finished all the questions. I guess I was fooled by some clever trick questions :-). If you also plan on taking this exam, I recommend the following training material:

I especially recommend the Lynda.com video series, they’re excellent.

    Please what’s the site details for the exam? All I could find in adobe is ACP, which does not cover Flex, last was Flash MX 2004 developer.

    Indeed, the Adobe certification site hasn’t been updated in quite a while. You can find a pdf containing details about the exam here: http://partners.adobe.com/public/en/ace/Exam_Guide_Flex2.pdf

    hi, congrats for getting such a high score. Was the Adobe Flex @-Training from the source really a help for u. Do we get any practice qn. papers for the test. Were there any code snippets.

    Please reply for the queries…..

    Hi Shameer,
    Yes, the training from the source book is really useful. Hands-on, so lots of code and practical examples. No practice questions for the test though, I don’t know where to find them either. I highly recommend watching the Lynda.com video tutorials, they’re really useful. Good luck!

    certifications dont seem to me very attractive, since you can access all almost possible questions and if you learn them you can get the exam easily, but still many firms are looking for such certificates as their requirements

    Hi ,

    Congratulations. You must have worked hard. i am also preparing for the certification and almost clue less about the test questions. Can you please let us know some of them, in case you remember. Thanks

    I took (and passed) the Flex 2 Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) exam today.

    Minimum score 73% and I got a 77%.

    I studied pretty hard for this exam, though I was weak on Flex Data Services. My strength in other areas saved me.

    Section Name - Percent Correct
    Flex Application User Interface (UI) Creation - 93% correct
    Flex System Architecture and Design - 92% correct
    Flex Application Programming Fundamentals - 75% correct
    Interacting with Remote Data and Flex Applications - 46% correct

    I thought the exam was tough! I had doubts I would pass, but I said a prayer at the end, maybe that helped.

    Hi!

    You mentioned about lynda.com courses… What exact couses did you mean? I can see 3 courses related to Flex 2 (Essential Training, Beyond the Basics, Advanced: Using Data Services) and one to ActionScript 3…

    Did you mean all of them?

    Best regards!
