What was the purpose of your taking the exam?

The formal verification and confirmation of knowledge.

Did you have any experience with XML prior to taking the exam?

Yes, I have over 6 years’ experience with XML and nearly 1 year experience with XQuery.

How much time did you put into studying for the exam?

It took me about three weeks to prepare for exam (fortunately not day-by-day :-))

Let us know about any books, seminars or other preparation tools you used to study for the exam.

I can recommend the following books in English:
"XQuery", O'Reilly, 2007
"Beginning XML Databases", Wrox, 2007

I also found helpful practise exam on XMLMaster web site.

Please share any post-exam thoughts or advice for those who will be taking the exam.

Some questions are quite verbose, so the experience with analyzing and understanding of XQuery scripts is appreciated.
I recommend doing as many examples and exercises as possible (you can find them easily on the net) to get proficiency.
You can also modify problems (what-if case) and experiment with them. Have a good fun!
