Thank you for your responses: I went to specific exam feedback and found very little up to date info. Can someone please help me?

Possibly due to the low pass rate, they do not appear to be changing the content (not the same as exact questions) frequently. My feedback from 2009 was still helping test-takers to pass as recently as January.
