Just got my score back. So close it hurts.
I felt okay going in but clearly there were gaps. Looking back at my prep, I spent a lot of time on "csjt resolu" but I think I underestimated how deep they go on csjt test.
The weird thing is I scored fine on the concept questions but tanked on the application ones. Like I understood the theory but when it came to scenario-based questions I kept second-guessing myself.
For anyone who's failed and then passed — what changed? Did you switch study materials? More practice tests? Different time of day?
Also curious whether the CSJT score report tells you which sections you were weak in. Mine just shows an overall score and I have no idea where exactly I lost points.
Quick data point: I spent 9 weeks studying, 1-3 hours a day, and passed with a 81%.
The section on csjt resolu took me the longest to feel confident about. Eventually I just drilled practice questions until I could answer them without hesitation.
What testing center did you end up booking? Some of them have much shorter wait times than others right now.
