in Server 70-290
Well, i passed yesterday with an 857 after stressing no end over the last few weeks...

I actually found the test not too difficult and I have to say that Transcenders really put me in a strong position. I think the transcenders were slightly harder than the exam itself. A lot of the questions were similar to questions on the Transcender exams, but in the full exam, i found it easier to narrow it down to the correct answer by elimination of others than i did in transcenders.

I also used CBT Nuggets which were excellent and the MS Press book. I work on servers on a regular basis and only did a couple of labs which i didn't find particularly helpful but if your pretty new to server, i'd recommend it.

    Congratulations!

    I've had the same experience with the Transcender products I've used. I'd much rather be over-prepared.

    Don't forget to update your cert list ;)

    Eh...it's no big deal...this exam is pretty easy.

    IMO 70-270 was tougher, mostly because it deals with uncommon things.

    Make sure you go over the objectives and you will be fine.

    I seemed to get a lot of NTFS permissions questions, not much on TS or WSUS which i spent a lot of time learning....I guess you have to learn pretty much everything....although there didn't seem to be anything on printers at all - you should know enough from the 270 if you've done it not to go through that chapter
