Hi,
I know the exam covers powershell but to what extend? It is just the basic commands?

Very basic..No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives. -

I think you will get 1 question max but it's all expectations you might get more than one but I don't think so. It's always better to study every thing just in case. -

(Full disclosure - I took the 649 upgrade exam and not the full 640 exam)
The 640 exam was written against the RTM version of Server 2008 - not 2008 R2. Based on the published exam requirements, most of the command-line objectives are around automating Active Directory tasks. Since AD cmdlets weren't introduced until R2, I would guess that the odds of getting a question on PowerShell are pretty slim. You would be better off learning the options (and limitations) of the legacy command-line tools such as ldifde, csvde, and the various DS commands.
If anything, working with those commands will make you appreciate PowerShell more. -

I haven't really been learning it at all. I'm focusing more on windows command line tools...
