Passed 70-680 Exam!!
After failing, (490), I went back and used Poulton's Book, measureup.com, and watched the whole Professor Messer's series (for visual labs and seeing some commands not mentioned in Poulton's book).

SQL Server 2012 Upgrade Tracks
SQL Server Overview Interestingly enough, it does not matter if you have DBA or DB Developer, you have the same upgrade path. Also, they added MCSA (Microsoft Certified Solution Associate) for SQL server 2008 by passing 432 and 448. I guess I can add that to my resume haha.

Should I bother getting the MCITP in Desktop Administration or Focus on EA?
Not sure how much the MCITP would help out in my current position (Desktop Admin) especially since I plan on wrapping up my MCITP: EA in the next year or so, as I'm looking to move onto the systems admin side of work in the near future. Would any of you bother with the Desktop MCITP, or should I just continue on my planned…

70-649 Study Material
I will be studying for the MCSE to Windows Server 2008 upgrade exam soon. I noticed that the MSPress book for the 70-649 exam is outdated, and does not cover any R2 material. That being the case, are their any books that do? Or will I need to actually buy books for (70-640, 70-642, and 70-643) separately? I did see a book…

640/642 Study Notes
I have been self-studying for the 640/ 642 in preparation for WGU.

And now onto 70-642
After some crash study and labbing over a couple of months for 70-640 I past the exam with 749 about 2 weeks ago. For a wannabe IT professional in his mid 40's, IT is not something I have a natural flair for, unlike some of my colleagues and it's hard work. However, achieving my first ever MS certification had me buzzing…
