Well, passed it today on a second shot, got a 747. Wished I had gotten higher, but I know where I will focus more on, and it will help with the 293. This should give me the MCSA 2k3:Security.

A lot of overlap with the 290 again, completely different question/sims set, which was the usual WSUS/IAS/DNS/IIS heavy subjects. The PC locked up while I was testing and I was about to strangle someone, LOL.

Thanks to everyone on this site for the help, the notes/questions, and to Wedge for his final version on the study notes. I usually use the ExamCram2 tearouts before the test, but used his instead this time. Labbing is essential to passing this exam!

I'll see you guys in the 293 section and good luck to those who are still working on 291, IT CAN BE BEAT!
-WIP- (70-294 and 297)

Once MCSE 2k3 completed:

WGU: BS in IT, Design/Management

Finish MCITP:EA, CCNA, PMP by end of 2012

After that, take a much needed vacation!!!!!

    Congratulations!

    Glad to hear you made it out of the lair alive.
    You are the systems administrator for a large enterprise that has decided to place computers in the lobby for access to public company information. On Tuesday morning Rooslan storms into your office screaming, "what the hell is this? In the last question I was the systems administrator. Now I am only a "Backup Operator"? This **** is crazy!"

    Thanks fellas! Anyone get their new card/paper in? Is it the same boring blue as the MCP stuff? I mean, from a company that owns the world in terms of software and the programs that can do anything, who is in charge of their designs? LOL!
