Passed 290

Background: 3 yrs experience T1/T2 for City government.
Two weeks of studying. I didn't think I was ready, but I had vouchers that were expiring soon so I crammed and went for it.
45 questions, 4 sims. As I went through the exam, I had a feeling I was going to fail. I spent 2 and a half hours on the exam. As it scored, I kept expecting to get a 500-600.
Guess what I got?
700.
I couldn't believe it. I got lucky. 700...barely passed, but a pass is a pass.
My weakest area was "Manage and Maintain Access to Resources"
I would recommend people to really make sure they know permissions and AD. A lot of questions on that.
Now for 291 to get my MCSA! I'm definitely going to make sure I study/practice enough for that.

Congratulations
291 or the Beast, as they call it, would require more effort. I also feel that it is hyped up by many people. Have heard from people that it is not that hard if you put in the effort. Good luck !
Any questions, this is the forum !!

Good luck with 291. Make sure you are very familiar with DNS and DHCP. If you don't have access to a server at work, make sure you create a home lab. It is very helpful with things like zone transfers with regards to the different types of zones and DNS hierarchical structure
