Other than failing the 70-294 the first time with a 692 and getting a 900 the second, I have not had huge issues with these tests so far. Any insight would be wonderful.

The 298 is extremely easy to pick out key words that relate to security and providing you have good basic knowledge of authentication methods, it's a far easier exam from what I can see. Plus it goes towards Security too. Hope that helps.

If it wasn't required for one of my college courses, I would have taken 298 instead of 297, not because it was easier, but because it counts for a different certification (:Security) whereas the 297 doesn't (unless you have the $30,000 to get Microsoft Certified Master).

I am 3 months into this term and completed 6 courses. My mentor wants me to stop for the term. I think I am on a roll. I will argue though that WGU is harder than the traditional large university I started in.

Next term you will get a WGU usb stick. Mine came in yesterday as a congrats for so much speed in my first term. 512 mb tho . After that, I will take off a month then on to my masters.
