hi,

LOL, you don't have to sit in the chair all that time. If you have completed the exam in 2.5 hours then click 'End Exam' and go.
The 4 hours + is the time limit you have to complete. As long as you have put the studying hours in that time scale should be plenty to take the exam and review your answers before finishing.

Good Luck.

Well i dont like such a Boss what are his priorities anyway. To me it doesn't sound like an professional attitude this is also for his interest. Well if it costs your job and you need to pay hugh bills forget what i have said. But you need a half day off, you are very happy if you get the exam done and pass without time troubles. This exam is one of the most difficult exams and compared to 270 or 290 you need a lot of more time. My advice is get an high score-report as possible like 900. Where i work we hired specialist contract workers for DNS routing etc 70-291 but then for Novell and although they where GOOOOD. Everyone agrees this is the hardest part of all. Everyone can play the monkey, create a user account, install server 2003 and reset a password. Or create a home directory but........... well i think you know what i mean. Everyone who have seen the Testout 70-291 CBT do you remember the beginning of the DNS section man funny funny funny a must see. It's not mr Bean but it shows how serious this topic is.

The CBT nuggets well nice to watch the man speaks like a waterfall, but really usefull for the
70-291 not in my oppinion. And i dont understand it the man is also for a part responsible for the exam pool questions track 2003. But i dont get that feeling when i watch the video's.

What i have to say if you watch cbt Nuggets he shows more skills than others.

cheers
