Passed 70-293 with a 895. Thought this was tougher than any of the other MS tests I've taken so far...got hit heavy with security related topics. Off to 70-294 now

Forgot to post the "what I saw" portion:
- 3 Simulations (1 on GPO configuration, 1 on certificate revocation, 1 on SMB Signing)
- Very heavy on security (IPSec, SMB, templates, etc)
- Few questions on clustering (none on NLB)
- Few questions on troubleshooting DHCP/DNS
- 6-7 "Drag 'N Drops", pretty straight-forward stuff
- Few questions on subnet configuration/correct IP addresses to use
- Few questions on RRAS (mainly hot spot questions)
Overall, a difficult exam. Whereas I scored a 925 on 70-291, I got a 895 on this one...go figure.MCSE 2003, MCSA 2003, LPIC-1, MCP, MCTS: Vista Config, MCTS: SQL Server 2005, CCNA, A+, Network+, Server+, Security+, Linux+, BSCS (Information Systems) -

I sounds like you got hit with a broader spectrum of topics than most others. From all topics you listed it does seem like the test would be hard. Congratulations and good luck on the next one. -
