Hey all:
Just posting my pass on 70-218 this morning. I surprised myself with a 902. Although I began prepping for this test last month, I never got past chapter 3 in the MS book and a couple of the CBT Nuggets before an opportunity presented itself to take the exam free of charge (voucher given to me by a friend that was going to expire tomorrow). So with 2 days notice I scheduled the exam and well, I passed.
The exam was long, 50 Q and 150 minutes. I took 90 minutes. All the questions were 2-3 paragraphs long and more than half also had exhibits. Some multiple answer q's, mostly a single answer. Like all MS exams, it was often difficult to eliminate more than 1 or 2 wrong answers as they are all semi-correct.
I got the pretty standard mix of DHCP, DNS, permissions, TCP/IP trouble shooting, GP/AD stuff. A couple of q's on Terminal Services, Offline Files, printers, and delegation.
Anyway, now I am an MCSA! Woohoo!
Webmaster - Thanks for all your help and support!
RussS - Sorry bud, you owe me a latte next time we are in the same country. :P
Everyone else - I've learned something from most all of you in the past 6 months. Thanks!

sprkymrk Member Posts: 4,884 ■■■□□□□□□□Thanks eastp. Next is probably the upgrade or 70-350 (ISA 2004) to get security specialization, plus I worked with ISA 2000 for about 2 years a while ago. Not planning on MCSE, at least not for W2K.
Unfortunately my CCNA will expire in November, so I have to decide what to do about that too.All things are possible, only believe. -
