I took master anaplaner exam in Mar 24 with months of studying and I failed with only getting 43 out of 60 questions correct. I thought I would have passed while taking the exam, but I awknowledged I should look deeper into some topics.

I took the master anaplaner exam in Jun 24 with even more studying. I created even a 144 page study guide that ive been studying for past few months and failed with 44 out of 60 questions correct. I felt VERY confident when taking the exam, feeling only about 5 questions I probably got wrong. Usually the multi select ones, Im confident in all selections but 1.

I have already spent $1,100 on the master anaplan exam, and I don't feel there much else I can learn with the materials on Anaplan Learning. I put some discussion posts out there and I don't feel confident in the responses I got. I don't know how else I can close the gap and figure out what questions I did not get right. I feel I am likely getting some of the same questions wrong and I have no clue which ones I am getting wrong. At times there are many solutions and I do know know what is considered "the best solution". I cannot find the "best solution" in some scenarios on the anaplan website.

Any advice or help?
