Hi @BradenColeman, yes you're correct! Since the question criteria calls out "will always allow a person to qualify" and the actual filter criteria is for ANY, option 2 is incorrect since it requires both to be filled out. 

This questions continues to be a tricky one since there are so many nuances, so I wanted to share this Loom one of the other mentors put together because I think it's really helpful: https://www.loom.com/share/c5f018bdea3948e78ae97d59af4e9d38.

Hi @logankardash, @Jasmine_Deo, @smasunda, @Chelsea_Corbett, @ayanpaul we're down to our final weeks of the mentorship program! Can you all provide a quick status update on your progress?

• How are you coming along with your studying and preparation?
• What areas do you still need help with?
  
• Are there specific resources you need help surfacing? 

This week we'll be diving into the last section of the test - Reporting - which takes up 4% of the test!

This section covers Reporting, Email Insights, Performance Insights, and Advanced BI Analytics Reporting. The Exam Prep Guide goes into each of these areas in more detail. Here are some other helpful reporting links, too!

• Revenue Cycle Models(opens in a new tab).
• Create a Program Performance Report(opens in a new tab).
• Campaign Email Performance Report(opens in a new tab).
• Group Person Reports by Attributes(opens in a new tab).
• Group Email Reports by Segmentations(opens in a new tab).
• Group Person Reports by Segment(opens in a new tab).

Let me know how I can help as you get closer to taking the test!

Hi @logankardash, @Jasmine_Deo, @smasunda, @Chelsea_Corbett, @ayanpaul! Also, let's welcome @BradenColeman to our group! Braden, feel free to share an introduction of yourself! 

As we wrap up our week on Reporting, I wanted to share a few quiz questions to make sure you're all feeling comfortable with the topic. Let me know your responses in the thread here!

1. What is a crucial step you must take before approving an entire revenue model?

1. Ensure the model is live.
2. Remove all people from the model.
3. Confirm your choice in the dialog that appears.
4. Approve individual stages and add people to them.

2. Which of the following columns is included in a Program Performance Report?

1. Channel
2. Total Cost
3. New Names
4. Conversion Rate

3. Which of the following can you not do with Marketo Reporting?

1. Add Custom Columns to a Person Report
2. Add Opportunity Columns to a Lead Report
   
3. Filter People in a Report with a Smart List
   
4. Use the Email Link Performance Report to view who clicked a specific link

Also, let's make sure you're all taking the Practice Test in the next week to identify any additional areas you need help studying with. This is really helpful to figure out areas where you need to spend more time studying prior to taking the test. To take the practice test:

• First, log in to the Adobe Credential Management System with your Adobe ID.

• Then, go to the Adobe Certification Exam Prep Portal to find your practice test.
  
  

Finally, I'll be nominating someone from our group for a 100% paid exam voucher, so please make sure you're staying engaged with our group and have Community notifications for our thread enabled so you don't miss anything. As always, let me know any questions you have or how I can help you prep for the exam!

Hi @Natalie_Kremer ! Thanks for providing so many great resources along the way. I feel like this has really let me dive into some areas that I use often but maybe didn't fully understand the functionality of! Below are the answers to the quiz questions!

1. D. Approve individual stages and add people to them. 

2. I think for this one there could be multiple correct answers. A, B and C all seem to appear in the Program Performance Report. I'm going to go with those 😃

3. 4. The email link performance report usually just shows an aggregate of total clicks and the number of people clicking on a specific link. From there it doesn't give you any insight into who or allow you to go to the person record.

Let me know how I did! Going to be taking the practice exam a couple more times prior to the upcoming exam! 🤞

Hi @Natalie_Kremer ! Thanks again for all the great resources and responding to my questions!

• How are you all feeling about taking the test?
  • I'm feeling good overall - when I first started I was just under the threshold to past but studying and being able to practice some of the areas I'm not in all the time has increased my score to passing on the practice exam!
• Have you taken the practice test to help surface any areas where you need additional studying? 
  • Yes - primarily around reporting is where I could use the most work so going to spend a bit more time there!
• What areas of focus do you have over the course of this week?
  • I would like to take the practice exam a bit more after looking over some more of the reporting resources!

Will these forums be closed after this week? 

Thanks!

@logankardash, @Jasmine_Deo, @smasunda, @Chelsea_Corbett, @ayanpaul and @BradenColeman we've come to the end of our mentorship time so I wanted to follow-up with some quick notes. 

• If you have questions as you continue to study, please add them to our thread and I'll pop back in to try to answer anything that comes up!
• If you applied for the exam voucher be sure to schedule our exam AFTER you received the voucher at the end of this week. This is good for 1-month after you receive the voucher, so be sure to schedule the exam during this time. 
  

It's been great working with you all and please keep me posted once you've taken the exam. I'd love to hear how it goes!
