Passed

Finally over. score 800. I was ignorant to server2003 until 2 months ago when I began to study. No experience with 2003. I used Learnkey, Microsoft Press Training Kit and ExamCram. 45 Questions, 6 sims and 215 mins allowed. The past tests i've taken (comptia, 70-290, ect.) seem to cover a small fraction of the study material. Maybe it's just me but that's what it seemed like to me. But the 290 exam did a good job a covering all topics that microsoft lists on its site. Good luck to everyone else.

No experience with Server 2003? Do you at least have experience with 2000 Server? Or perhaps at least some lab experience? Seriously, if you don't have any actual experience, or at least lab experience, passing the exams isn't really going to do you any good. Other than that, congrats.

Sorry. Ya..i have a lab set up at home. I meant I don't have an administrator job so I don't work with it everyday.(AD) But, my post was to let people know not to be scared of this exam even if ya don't have much experience.

Ah ok. You'd be surprised at how many people don't do any labs at all and have zero experience and try to obtain their whole entire MCSE. A bit ridiculous if you ask me. Anyways, again, congrats!

to further elaborate, when people you need "experience", I usually refer it to experience in the workforce and experience in a lab.

either way congrats...This is my next exam!
