Just passed 410!

njclay2004

... By the skin of my teeth, mind you, but I did it! Tried to take it two years ago with no studying (free voucher that was going to expire) and got a 300 for my troubles.

Anyway, how long does it typically take for my pass to appear on the Microsoft website? I'm positive that when I failed before, the result was listed immediately.

Congrats! These aren't the easiest exams in the world, that's for sure.

I seem to remember it took a day or so for mine to show up and over two weeks to get the 'ol Congrats email from Microsoft.

Congratulations! Microsoft says it may take up to a week for it to show on the Certification Portal but I think mine showed up in a couple days. So what's next? Are you going to move on to the 411 now?

Thanks everyone!

411 is definitely next - I originally was going to do 411 first since a majority of my job is focused more on administrative tasks buuuut ultimately settled on 410 first. Once I get the MCSA, not sure where I'll go from there. Maybe VMWare?

Well congrats on passing the exam. I know for me it only take about 1hr before it showed up in the portal. Right when I left the testing center went to work and log in. I was very happy to finally see it in the portal.

Congrats, I take mine on the 6th of April. I am pretty nervous, it will be my first server test.

Do you have any other MS certs under your belt? What are your study materials?

I dont want to hijack his post. I have 70-680. I am using transcender, MCSA 70-410 Cert Guide: Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012 R2 by Poulton, Networked Minds Videos, some CBT nugget videos, and the Microsoft Text.

Start another post. Welcome to the board. Ask questions and don't be shy.

*her post, and it's no trouble at all.

I'm probably going to create one soon about the 411 anyway. CBT Nuggets just released a new series with Garth Schulte for the 410 - it's infinitely better than the previous version AND comes with labs so you don't haaave to build your own if you don't have the time/finances/computing power. Cheers!

750 which was the lowest passing score I've ever gotten on a professional exam but it was super tough so I'm not complaining!
