When you finish, they show you which questions you got wrong but not what the correct answers were. You NEED to use the book to answer some questions, it would be impossible otherwise (some of those "What number of x are there?" questions like in the mock exams). I didn't actually notice any questions that had been in the mock exams but I'm sure there were some.Thank you for this post! I passed my exam in November already and was wondering why the diploma department hasn't reached out to me yet (they usually do asking to confirm data and issuing a "proof of processing of diplomas"). As you mentioned, this probably won't happen before the end of my exam period which is December 31st, then. Guess, I'll just have to wait some more time then.
Every test question and answer had messed up text, I mean like words were not even complete (It would say something like "WhA. is the inforA. we neeA. to..." for "What is the information we need to...") and there was only one question I noticed which could not be answered due to the answers having a different order (like "A) B) A and B are correct, C) D)". I will be Emailing them to tell them to correct the text. Unlike someone else who commented in these forums, I had no duplicate questions.
There is a timer at the very bottom of the screen if you scroll all the way down. I forgot to start the timer before I began so was really stressing out about time until I made it to the end. "Flagging" a question is not like reporting an inaccuracy, it is like a bookmark feature so you can easily find and go back to a question you were unsure about.
When you finish you get a message saying your score, that you passed, that the grades will be recorded into your file within around 7-14 business days, and that the diplomas will begin to be issued after that.
As you have 2 chances to take the exam, and your diploma is not actually issued until the end of the exam period I believe (April 31st for me), I assume you could study and retake the exam near the end of the exam period to get a better score. However a B is fine for me and frankly is in line with all other grades I've ever gotten at any school.
After combing through my incorrect answers, I had 3 where the test did not accept the correct answer, 1 where the jumbled text answers made it impossible to answer, 1 where the question was so vague I could neither know the answer nor find the answer in the textbook, 1-2 where I couldn't find the answer anywhere in the textbook despite the question being clear, 2-3 where I just misread either the question or the text in the textbook.
If they correct my test score to accommodate for those messed up questions, I will technically get bumped up from a B- to a B+, but as I said I think the transcript might just be pass/fail anyways... we'll see.

Just took the MBA + Project Management combined exam. Got 80%.
As other have stated, THAT exam did have duplicate questions as well as several questions (6, including duplicates!) which did not take the correct answer. I have written to ENEB about it. Of the remaining wrong answers, 1 was one of the same ones from the Hotel & Tourism that I couldn't find the answer to anywhere, 1 was me just plain misreading the answer where two answers had almost the same wording, and 1 was that I just spaced out and clicked the wrong answer.
Additionally, 6 or so of the questions were the same between the Hotel & Tourism exam and the MBA + Project Management exam. This isn't crazy, as they do have several chapters in common.
If they fix my score to include the answers which were unfairly marked incorrect, I will raise from a B to an A.
