Took 70-647 about a month ago when I went back home during some free time. Thought it wasn't too difficult. Took the 70-640 during my MCSE. That just left the 70-649 and I'm actually surprised I passed.
70-640: 760
70-642: 887
70-643: 880
Didn't think I did that well on the first section. Nine questions like a lot of people have been getting and could have sworn I missed 3. The other two sections I was more confident on.
I used the CBT Nuggets video which I don't recommend using as your only resource. It was very helpful but I know there was stuff on the test they didn't cover. My advice, know ts and iis very well. Those were the sections that I had the most trouble in deciding which answer to choose.
Now that I'm done with Microsoft for a while (lol Master series $18k) I'm going to be studying for the CCNP. Failed the BSCI by 50 points last November and started on the Microsoft certs once I got to San Francisco. Since this is more new to me than Microsoft, I am going to take my time. Figure 2 months study time per test.

Ugh, how could you let BSCI go after being so close? That has to have been eating at you. Now is the time to attack it with a vengeance, eh?
Congrats on the pass! -

Thanks everybody and I'm studying for the BSCI right now. I was in the process of moving (took the test with my car packed as I was leaving Louisiana) and didn't have enough time to go over multicasting and ip6 as much as I wanted to and I did horrible on those two sections.

Good luck on your BSCI. I'm prepping for my 646 now. How did the 647 compare to the 649? congrats!"Check both the destination and return path when a route fails." "Switches create a network. Routers connect networks."
