Beat you. I got 100 on all three tests (amateur elements 2, 3 and 4).
I will admit that there was some rote memorization involved, especially
on the parts that I didn't know anything about (calculations involving
imaginary numbers, for example).

When I started studying for the Advanced or maybe it was the Extra class
exam I was somewhat intimidated by the section on imaginary numbers, J
operator, etc.
I studied it in college to get my electronics degree but that was quite a
while ago.
My first thought was I can just guess at these questions and if I miss them
all I will still pass the test.
Then I decided to just memorize the (Radio Shack) study material, not the
formulas or the math to solve the problem.
I passed first try.
