After failing miserably the first two times - I finally slayed the Beast yesterday with a 742... not the greatest score but at this point, I'll take it

!!!
I read the Sybex and Microsoft books along with Test Out.
I can't wait for my microsoft information to be updated and see that I finally obtained the MCSA.
So now that the celebrating is done, back to the grind and onto the 293.
Good luck to future test takers.
