Can't believe it !!!

Yes ! It happened !!! Passed the test this mornig ... Was so scared, I have been studied hard for 3 weeks, used Testout (their tests are so tricky and it really helped me a lot), MS Press and the Technotes when something was missing .... Used Measure up (very good, some questions were the same) and Transcenders for the tests .... Hardly got 80 % on the tests when preparing.....
When I saw the congratulations !!! Rubbed my eyes, and when I saw the score, 837 ! what a surprise !!!!
It might seem a little weird but, with those questions, even when I know I am right, I can't help it but doubt (maybe their is a little comma I did not see )

Ok so lots of permissions, either NTFS or share, IIS, printing, sysprep and RIS ... My weakest point was Desktop environment ....
Now what ? 290 !!!

Thanks for all of you, the forum was a very good help for me, have printed technotes all over my desk .... Thanks Johan

Webmaster

Congrats!

290 would be a logical next step if you want to complete the MCSA or MCSE track.

Congrats on the pass. I do agree with Webmaster that you should go for the 70-290. I did the 70-290 a few months ago and I used the 70-290 book which was pretty good. It did leave out a good bit of information which was easily obtainable from Windows Server 2003 Help + Support (which is actually very informative) as well as from http://technet.microsoft.com. CBT Nuggets is an excellent source for training as well. Good luck on 70-290!

Hey Nel ! Yes I was scoring about 80 % at most, but what I did was, on each testing program, I would select the questions for just one objective.... Go throught it, and then jump to the other program, and go through the same objective. That way, I was not working on the same questions all the time..... I did not really have the time to practice a real test, wanted to make sure that I could be comfortable on all subjects ...
Measure up was a very good help, I would suggest that U buy ur voucher on their site + the 270 kit (about $200 total) ... u will better understand their tricks .... Again thank you guys ! Appreciate your support, and Nel to tell you the truth, I was following your posts all the time
