I took and passed the test just over a year ago and they made a point to eliminate the negative questions like, "all but one of the following," or the double negatives. I'm sure they did this largely for non-native speakers of English, but those are nasty questions even for native speakers. Honestly, if you see practice tests with questions like that, you probably want to skip those practice tests. They prepare (and frustrate) you for something that won't happen. I'd love to give study tips, but how we learn tends to be somewhat personal. For me, it really helped to just read up on and be around the security community and deal with security on the job over several years, and augment gaps with relaxed reading and note-taking sessions. If you can, role-play in your head how concepts may apply to your company/job/manager and how that conversation may go.
