Whew...passed with an 840. Prometric sucks.

Background: I've been studying for this test for almost 2 years. Minor interuptions, like my wife having a baby, summer, etc kept me from going head on until a few months ago.

I read the MS Self-Paced TWICE, the Exam Cram TWICE, and the Transcender questions non-stop repeatedly.

I went in under the assumption that it was a 45 question test and figured I'd be able to bomb the estimated 5 simulations and be able to miss a few others and be safe. When the information came up that it was only 30 questions, my stomach dropped because that threw off my "how to squeak by" philosophy!

Luckily, it wasn't as hard as I expected and I pulled it off. Now I have to go balls-to-the-walls for 70-291.

My beef is with Prometric. I've never had a "event-less" experience with them. This time, my passing certificate didn't print out and the girl said I'd have to wait a few hours for their helpdesk to fix it. I needed to leave so I said "forget it". I want it and emailed their HQ, but I never get any response from them.

Have fun with the 291! Hopefully prometric will be more cooperative then. Do you have several choices of testing centers available?

Good job. Thank you for sharing the amount of time you have been preparing for the exam. I don't feel so bad now. I'm lucky because I get to take me time. I am using all the same study material that you used.

Keep on Prometric. I had the same printing problem situation and I had to go back to pick up my print out. They know they have problems but I get the impression that they want to resove tham ASAP and really care about the testie.
