Yep! Supposed to take A18 on 9/1 but not sure if 5 days is going to be enough. My 49th birthday is 9/2 and I start 10 days vacation on 9/2 so I may not take the exam until the week of 9/14.

Yesterday afternoon at 2:30 I was only on page 275 out of 530 in the 70-647 book. I finished the book at 3:30 this morning, did exam simulations until 5:30, slept for 3-1/2 hours, did exam sims for 4 more hours, then went and took the exam. I probably should have rescheduled the exam for tomorrow and made a 900+ but hey, a pass is a pass. And I saved the $35 reschedule fee...

By the way, my exam score average for the five EA exams is 874. That 740 on 70-640 killed my 920+ average...

Damn man, that's a bummer! j/k

I know where you are coming from but I'm sure you are not dwelling on the sub 900 average. It would have been a cool personal achievement, but who cares now that you've passed the lot.
