Google Educator level 1

So I decided to sit my Google Educator Level 1 exam over the school holidays as I won't be attending the last session of the DFI course due to our production happening that day. Have to say I was very nervous!
The exam began with capturing live webcam of me (which I couldn't reduce so it took up my screen and obscured the first two questions before downsizing to the top left of my screen). Once this was sorted I began the 20 multiple choice questions. These varied in difficulty, some were easy and some were a bit unfamiliar and aimed at secondary teaching scenarios.
Next came the 11 sections where I was given a made up email, drive and contacts. I then had to work through the various scenarios which covered, Google Docs, Google Sheets, You Tube, Google Groups, Google Classroom, Google Calendar, Gmail, Google Sites, Google Slides, Google Drawing and Google Drive.
I hadn't used Google Groups or Google Classroom, but they were fairly easy to muddle through. I was conscious of my facial expressions in the top left corner pulling faces as I re-read some instructions. But after a nerve wracking 1.5hrs...I passed!
Very relieved...but not feeling the need to jump into level 2 too quickly!
