MSCA this morn

Finally this morning i polished off the 70-293 (on second shot), out of the 4 (270,290,291 and 293) i thought the 290 was 'less difficult'
that the others but 270, 293 and the beast (291) need a fair bit of work. I think this is the correct order to take them in though.
Difficulty..
270.....8
290.....6
291.....9
293.....8
Not sure if this helps anyone but right now i'm off to pub to get
the rounds in.... icon_smile.gif

Thanks to this fourm, users and Admin.
Cheers

    Hey Doc, I really hate being the bearer of bad news, but I don't think you're MCSA yet. You have the 270, 290, and 291 which are correct for 3 of the 4 requirements needed for MCSA. The last test I believe has to be an elective exam, and 293 is not an elective. I went to Microsoft.com and the 293 did not appear anywhere for a requirement for MCSA. Here's the official link so you can check it out for yourself. Hopefully I'm wrong.

    I think Big Jizay is right. I didn't catch that myself. icon_redface.gif

    Congrats on the pass, even if the above req is true. You should be able to hammer out the 270 easy, knock on wood!

    Do you feel like the 293 to overlap from 291 like other's have stated?

    Congrats on the pass, (even if you're not quite an MCSA just yet). I'd say your best bet is to do the elective exam you're planning on doing for MCSE as your next exam, killing two birds with one stone and getting that MCSA after your name as quick as you can.

    Congrats again, and good luck with the future exams! icon_thumright.gif

    Oh sod it......
    Teehee your right, and a sore head this morning for nothing !
    I'll hit the 620 over next weeks to get MCSA as its an 'easy' one,
    and he was me ready to put feet up over summer!

    Moto - Yes its is an overlap, do the 291 first and follow on with the
    293 asap after. However still needs a bit of work. Took me near 4 months of hard graft. (ps cant wait to start of season in 2 wks)

    I wouldn't worry about it. The 620 isn't a patch on the 293 so you'll be an MCSA in no time. You've also just completed what I thought was the hardest exam on the MCSE track, so after the Vista exam make sure you polish off the MCSE :) Congrats!

    Thanks Bertieb, i'll crack on with 620 from tonight even though
    i was going to use Exchange2003 as elec. I'll look at exchange later when 'bit' more time.
    Its all a bit embarrassing !!!

    Well, I guess I can't be blamed for hijacking your post, since we are talking the season for motogp! LOL!

    We have an office in the UK and I have a guy who sent me a cd of the last Northwest 200, as much as I love the big boys, the NW guys have way bigger nads! I love it! One day I hope to get to the Isle to see a race before the safety mongers get it banned. I think that other than watching for Colin Edwards ( he is from about 15 miles from my home) and I met the Haydens when I raced here in Texas years back, WSBK is going to be the best! I am glad to see that Ben is lighting a fire! I thought when Biaggi booted him off at turn 2, race 1, that it was going to be a good start. A fellow Texan to boot!

    What series is your fav?
