In keeping with a time-honored tradition of mine, I finally got around to getting my certification for ColdFusion 8 just as ColdFusion 9 comes out. I did this for CF5 and CFMX7 as well. Mainly this is for me to check that box off my to-do list, but it's also a resume padder for my employer to use on proposals.
I admittedly did very little studying for this exam relative to what I've done in the past, and as a result I did not hit the 80% score needed to get Advanced Developer status. I got a 79%, which I guess means I'm the best of the rest or something like that. But this exam, unlike the other ones I've taken, spent a lot more time into some real niche areas of CF that I personally haven't used too much.
That being said, for those that do want certifications in CF, I highly recommend using CentraSoft's CF Exam Buster software. I've used it as my sole training tool in addition to my years of experience, and I think it's the best. Just next time, I'll use it for more than 2 days in advance of the the CF9 exam...
