Failed and Gutted

websponge

Got 547!

some of the questions I didnt even know about! all of this was about domains and policys, hardly any XP Pro itself questions,

you could of sat this exam knowing Windows 98 and it wouldnt of made a difference, really threw me off completely

I sat the 2272 Microsoft course and read over it twice, and did about 100 sample questions as well as online stuff, none of it mattered

can anyone tell me where I went wrong. I dont know what to use to study for the retake now, what a waste of £100 I was really confident and took my time...

Thanks and Rant over.

I would recomend more pratice tests to get used to the exam question style and material,
I did 270 first and was suprised how difficult it was. I found Vista 620 really easy in compresson!
you get it next time

270 does indeed cover a lot of stuff. It doesn't cover just the client aspect. Keep going at it. Hope you signed up for the 2nd shot. Not sure if it's available overseas though.

Sorry to hear about the fail. I just recently passed this exam. I found it helpful to study up on 70-290 a little bit because there is a lot of overlap. Hope this helps.

Hey!

Don't be to down I found the 70-270 very hard because there is so much covered. I only just passed it. I usually use a combo of books and cbt's and practice tests. I find this really works for me. Have another crack at the exam as soon as you feel ready and I'm sure you will be fine. The don't waste any time and make sure you get straight on the 70-290 cos there is a lot of overlap. Personally I found the 290 easier than 270. Go for it I bet you pass 2nd time and 290 first time if you study straight after 270.

can anyone please tell me where I can download loads of practise exam questions please?

I want to study hard this next 2 weeks, so I can do the test again, and ranjitcool, I have never heard of exam cram 2? what is it?

Thanks for your replies guys, I feel a bit more focused today

I'd recommend you pick up the MS Press book, which will give you the most amount of information. Practice questions are good, and all, but they can only give you so much information. Other books that are excellent as well are the Sybex and Exam Cram. Good luck on your next attempt.

Just ordered exam cram 2 will spend the next week reading it non stop!

I'd probably edit your post, becareful about copyright, its frowned upon big time on TE.
