    I am sorry to hear that. What else did you do to prepare?

    Do you think your problem is not knowing the material or is it developing the skills to filter out the important stuff from the unimportant stuff in Microsoft's questions?

    I have seen several people who are pretty good with the technology but don't read the questions carefully enough before jumping to an answer.

    Try ruling out all the incorrect choices first(and know why they are incorrect) and then get to the right answer by deduction.

    Good luck next time icon_wink.gif
    I usually hang out on 224.0.0.10 (FF02::A) and 224.0.0.5 (FF02::5) when I'm in a non-proprietary mood.

    I know Sybex is great... but you could pick up the MS Press book for this exam.

    You are no that far from a pass. Try doing something a little different and don't forget what you already know and I think you should be fine next time.

    This is not a really hard exam by MS standards. I think it is more of a learning curve of the question format for you. Good luck.. icon_wink.gif

    I finished the chapter I was reading and know where I went wrong. Lucky for me I remember most of the question that were on my exam. :D Next time I study I'll take notes.

    Great work. Remember though, odds are the questions you will receive next time will be an entirely different set.

    I know, but because I know, I knew what I needed to work on and what to look for.
