Thank you for sharing!  I too studied very diligently and have never struggled as much with a test as I have this one.  I graduated college with a 4.0 and have never failed any other certification!  It was a real hit to the confidence but I know there are issues with the test itself...glad to hear you feel the same.  I had these exact issues with section 5 and did fail 3 times as well.  Have you received an answer or guidance?  Not willing to retake if it's the same old thing.
