MTA Windows Server Administration. It wasn't as easy as the practice tests on Measureup, lol.
1. A lot of Group Policy questions.
2. A lot of storage questions.
3. A lot of scenarious.
They asked me one question about Group Policy Loopback... I was like "wtf is this".
Study Material;
1. Pluralsight
2. Some chapters on this book http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Windows-Server-Administration-Essentials/dp/1118016866/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1443884629&sr=8-2&keywords=mta+windows+server+administration+fundamentals. Mainly the Application servers chapter and performance/maintenance chapters.
3. Used this as my daily study guide. Read it once before bed every night. http://www.techexams.net/forums/other-microsoft-electives/88798-mta-98-365-resources-technet.html
Shout out to Horusthesun for making this guide. Definitely helped out a lot bro.
Had 40 minutes for the test, passed it in 20 minutes. I'd say those three things really helped.
Also, now I'm apart of the MCP website
. Super excited about that.

Actually was suprirsed how much the questions stumped me. I was talking to the guy at the cert center. I was like "yeah, a lot of people said it was a breeze. It seems like it stumped on some questions though". He was like "Yeah, Microsoft is upping the exam and how hard it is". Heck, I even saw a System Center question on it! About VMM and converting physical to virtual. -

Congrats System! Doesn't it feel good? I just took that exam last Tuesday. I agree, some of those questions were NOT in my study materials. Some of those I had enough experience to answer while a few of them were completely new to me. Glad it wasn't just me then

When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep, So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler And your need like an armed man. -

HI Systemstech, how was the exam? how many questions were there?
I'm taking the exam at the end of March, and I'm currently using Pluralsight and the Wiley book to study. I was wondering you had any pointers?
Thanks! -

I took this one.. It is surprisingly harder than you would think being an MTA. I actually failed it the first pass because I didn't study hard enough. When I took it there were 37 questions.
Good luck!
