Passed 70-290

70-290 is out of the way. I passed with an 814, which is not as high as I'd hoped for but, I'm just glad to be done with it.

Is it just me or was this stuff boring?!?!? Having said that I did learn a good foundation for the rest of the course work I think.

The test was not too bad really, not nearly as tricky as the questions on the Readiness Review Suite in the MS training kit.

I used the Sybex Book, MS Training Kit, and Exam Cram. I read them all cover to cover, Exam Cram twice.

Also this site played a good part in information for me on the exam.

I had about 6 simulations, and 45 questions. It took about 2 hours, I kept looking for those tricky key words in the questions. I probably spent too much time on them.

For my first MS Cert experience, it took a bit to get over the learning curve, I probably should have started with 70-270. I think the rest will come much more quickly.

Thanks for the help guys!

Good job!
Some of it can get boring. Those are usually the parts that don't interest you. I try to spend extra time on these since they're where I'm weakest. Yawn

Know you folder and file permissions well. Like in your sleep. As long as you go over the rest of the material thoroughly you should be ok. It really was not too bad of a test, its just that some of the text books on the exam tend to stray a bit. Sitck to the core concepts and you will do well.
