For those who are sitting the exam, there are 50 questions and you get a little over 2 hours.I used MSDN ,blogs and tutorials & my own experiences to study.

About 10 question each on BRE and BAM. So BRE and BAM are important parts of the exam.
Rests of the question were not that difficult; if you have worked on BizTalk 2004/2006 then you can certainly take a chance.

But now there are lots of questions which are either multiple choice or “Drag and Drop and arrange in sequence” type.

Things to focus on:
BAM
Business rules engine
Persistance points
Deployment
Orchestrations
