    I failed it too just now, can I ask how long you've been studying for and which recources you found most helpful.

    676 is close. I would say take a couple of weeks to a month and focus study on the areas you did the worst and really try to understand those. I would also suggest just to brush up on the areas you did well in just to keep them where they are. You're close.

    You were close, only a few questions away from passing. Hit Group Policy Management hard and Core Networking. Keep your head up and don't sit on it too long - study while things are fresh in your mind.

    Good luck and keep us posted!

    Read those group policy questions very carefully. As for the core networking, watch a lot of videos about subnetting, especially good for me was one on YouTube about the magic number.

    You'll get it.

    Well, group policies obviously could take some investment. Learn their priorities, like LSDOU + deny inheritance, know that they have file part and AD part that get replicated using appropriate replication mechanisms and how do they work and how to check if they are healthy, know that they get applied primarily through registry settings, their timings, how to delegate someone rights to work on GPOs for their OUs.

    I've been playing with the servers at work for a few months, I also used Sybex MCSA and Microsoft exam-ref books. Oh, and youtube!

    Thank everyone, I'm retaking it this Saturday coming. will let you know how it goes.

    Group policy and active directory are both command and structure heavy. And Microsoft is pushing hard on your being able to perform common tasks in AD on policy configurations using PowerShell commands, so try some exercises in the lab to burn in some of the command structure maybe. Or watch some videos. Whatever you've been doing... Switch it up just a little and don't be discouraged!

    Make sure you go back and lab everything over and over again. Make sure you can do everything in Powershell that you can do in the GUI. Lab lab lab is the key! Good luck to you!
    All the best,

    Thanks Alfred, congrats on your recent pass as well. I bought the booster pack for the 70-410. I wish I had bought two more for the 70-411 and 74-409. hopefully the booster pack returns soon.

    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.
