Question about CCST Level 1 Exam

Hello Friends,
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.
I plan on taking the CCST Level 1 Exam in a few months. I have also
talked to a handfull of people who have taken the exam in the past.
The only problem, I get different replys.
One person told me that his exam was open book. This was true several
years ago. Now the exam is taken on a computer, and it's closed
book. You cannot even take a calculator in the door with you.
Another person told me that the study guide didn't even come close to
the questions he had on his exam. He thought it was a waste of time
to even purchase the study guide.
So, I'm asking anyone out there who has taken the Level 1 exam
recently: Will the Level 1 Study guide help?
I have downloaded the Standards from ISA's website, and there seems to
be a lot of info which I am currently studying.
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Hi my name is Tony i just tuck the ccst level1 exam i purchased the
study gide and i found it helpful in the test that i tuck there was
about 25% of the questions mathematical problems like 75% output of a
4-20mA transmitter is ? of course its 16mA this being the easy ones
there is also some like the span in inches of water of a differential
pressure transmitter used to measure the full level of a tank that is
5-ft 6-inches. high and contains a process material with a specific
gravity of 0.9 should be ? answer is 59.4 this problems are for level
u also need to know pressure, flow,mass,tempeture , conversions from
psi to feet of water,to hg, and other many example questions are in
the study guide the REAL KEY to pass the test not to memorize the
questions and answers on the study guide but to understand the
mathematical formulas and , and to understand how all different type
of instruments in different process loops work example how does a dp
transmitter function ..i belive that if u use the study guide to give
you examples of what u shoud know to take the test then its worth the
money if u try to just memorise questions and answers its not because
i think only about 5% of questions of study guide are inthe test i
wish u the best of luck i passed u can too sorry about the spaling
english is my 2nd languish.
