Hello,

I am moving onto the 290 exam tomorrow morning and I am kind of anxious, I feel confident though as though I can pass the exam... am I supposed to be feeling this way? I mean I am feeling the same way I felt when I took the 270 exam and that seems to be more challenging than the server exams. Am I a bit over confident? I just dont know...

Wish me luck! Ill probably need it

I will post an update when I get back icon_cool.gif

    I don't think you feel over confident if you felt the same way when you took the 270. The confidence worked for you then, and should work for you now :)

    Most people say the 290 is easier than the 270. Good luck!!!

    Especially when you've already done 270; there's significant overlap.

    Good luck!

    I just got back from the testing center and I PASSED! =)

    I got a 43 question exam (a little low?) with 5 sims total

    My final score was a 740/1000

    A lower score than the 270 I took, that struck me also that I got a lower score by 7 points but a pass is a pass... :)

    Congratulations!!! For some reason, I scored lower on the 290 than the 270 also. Hey, a pass is a pass! So are you going after the 291 now?

    Yup 291 is next for me, Im probably going to take longer studying for that, I have little experience subnetting though (job/school) maybe it would make it shorter
