The exam, if anything like 272, is very easy. Using the materials you have, you should be able to pass first time. I belive my exam was around 55 questions, I'm not sure of time, because I was done rather quickly. I would say make sure to focus on scenarios, such as a user may call you, and say they can't access email or a program in XP, you need to know how to fix it. Of course, this is NOT an exact question from the exam, I don't even rememeber those, but it's an idea of what to look for. You can get some more resources FREE from M$ .
