643 on 70-410

By the time I was ready to begin studying for 70-410, the Second Shot deadline was only 3 weeks away. As much as I didn't like the idea of booking an exam for a time in which I knew I wouldn't be fully prepared, I went ahead and did it anyway. I figured if I can take the exam twice, for the same cost as taking it once, why not. I'm glad I did.

My last experience with Microsoft exams was several years ago, with the 70-680. I just remember feeling completely defeated by my horrible score, and how thrown off I was by the way questions were being worded, and the minute details MS seemed to be so focused on in the test. Sitting for the 70-410 was like a breathe of fresh air (lol). It put a ton of my worries surrounding MS certs at ease. Questions were, for the most part, very clear and concise. The types of questions I received were pretty well balanced between the topics. All in all, I felt it was a very fair test. It also doesn't hurt that I did better than I thought I would at this stage in my studying.

So, I'm all booked up to retake on July 3rd. I feel like this will give me solid amount of time to pick up in the areas that I haven't covered in detail yet, and subsequently did poorly on in the first sitting.

Got pretty close your first try, plus now you know your weak areas. Good luck on your 2nd shot.
