Passed 70-680 :D

Passed this afternoon first time with a 700. Extremely relieved. Wasn't feeling wholeheartedly confident going into it. Very happy I'm more aware of how Microsoft structures their exams now and I think I'll be far more confident going into future ones.

I felt the exam was totally fair in that it wanted to know that you understood the process and not necessarily just memorise a load of facts(although there was an element of that too.)

Onto 70-685 now! icon_smile.gif

    Congrats on the pass and good luck on 70-685! I found the second one harder than the first one so don't take it too easy :)

    Congratz on the pass and good luck on your next test. I failed the 70-680 on my first attempt so I too am more aware of how Microsoft structures their exams.

    Bacchus, I took several months studying, but study time will be different for everyone.

    I used the MS Press book and the included tests, along with transcender practice tests. In hindsight I would have labbed the material with technet as my primary learning tool, which is what I'm doing with 685. Thanks to everyone for the congrats'. :)

    Hope the real exam is easier than the Transcender nightmare !!! Although this test engine is far better than MeasureUp in my opinion as a lot of the questions on the MeasureUp were ridiculous and a lot of it incorrect.

    The questions are definitely easier to understand on the real thing, but I wouldn't say the content is any easier.
