Well I took the exam yesterday and it was quite a bit harder than I thought. The program itself isn't the hard part - it's the time constraint. Not much as changed for me since college as far as programming exams go. I always ran out of time then and I didn't quite have enough time yesterday.
Overall the basic functionality and program flow was there and correct, but I didn't have time to debug some issues and finish the last couple states. I then had to rush some documentation and commenting...
Hopefully it's enough to pass. *crosses fingers*
I'd say practicing speed over anything is the most important part - odds are if you have done any decent programming you know how to do it - just need to make sure you can do it fast enough.
