Well I finally sat 290 today and Passed!
However, I was a bit disappointed at my score of 771. I was hoping to do a tad better. That being said, I believe the sims killed me. Only one or two actual questions tripped me up. I probably could have done a little better in my study technique (i only really spent about a month of serious studying; the last week was a 'study gauntlet'). With my experience with server 2k3, I felt this was adequate enough.
I'm going to use the 'a pass is a pass' card, however. Thanks all for helping me out (directly or otherwise). The technotes, as usual, were excellent! So to that, I am really pleased its over with!
A side note, this is the first time I used this particular prometric site, and I must say I was VERY IMPRESSED at thier setup. Secure, up-to-date equipment, physical security, and overall staff. Everything was much better than other test centers ive been to. Especially hearing the prometric horror stories, I was surprised.
I am going to have a mini-weekend
then hit the books again! I move on to "The BEAST" in which Ive already decided to dedicate MUCH more time than this exam. My goal is not just to pass, but to master the curriculum as best I can.
Once thats over, ill be a MCSA...BRING IT!!!
