how long have you been "getting ready"? I will taking the test soon aswell but I haven't had any hands on with Server 2003 yet thats actually in a real situation but I've been reading and using PrepLogic's help, is handson something I would need to get some help with? Have you used server 2003, in a real life situation?

Micernest

I have been prepping for this exams and Vista for 3weeks now. Since am really used to vista i was fast with it. No i havent used server 03 in real life, Not exactly. But i have creat two servers on my Virtual Machine and intend to start the practise once i cover the theory aspect. When do you intend to write?

I've heard most people do really well with just practicing on a VM. It is important, at least for most people,to get the hands on practice. Just reading the book probably wont be enough. Even if you just use virtual box with a couple guests set up it should be enough.

Micernest

Two more chapters and i will be done. Then i will start practising.
Khang u didnt attach the note on terminal servers.
Guys what is the most difficult topic in the exams?

jwedlund

good luck with your exam at the end of the month. as per your question on hardest subject it will probably be whatever subject you haven't practiced with the most. I think it's different for everyone though. If i remember right mine was terminal services but that was because i never used it haha.

Mehn if go through this forum you will be scared...so many ideas and reviews. I guess i will gain more confidence after i write my first exams which will be Vista. I dont even know how simulation works. If you click multiple wrong thing does it after you? Or it only does if you submit it??

It's best to have a lab set up, either with virtual software or actual computers, it will help you understand some things better and help you with the sims.

If you get to the right result and submit it, it's right.
