in MCTS / MCITP on Windows 2008 General
Just passed this today

now onto the next exam was thinking that i would take a break from Microsoft exams, until the next version of SQL arrives and maybe doing a networking or a security one. Is there a good network vendor neutral exam or are the cisco ones the best? also which exams would people advise for security i have had a look at CEH or EC-Council Network Security Administrator but would like peoples opinions to if the exams and qualifications are worth it?

Thanks

    Great Job! Are the test-lets as bad as people make them out to be?

    cheers

    This happened to be a free retake of this exam so i was used to the testlets so didnt find them as bad as i had the first time i took the exam but i did find them harder than the other questions.

    hope that helps

    Congrats on passing.

    I would go with Cisco exams. It's the most in demand.

    Testlets are like mini-exams. Each one is timed and has a differing amount of questions. Once you move to the next testlet, you cannot go back and change your answers. M$ has some of these on their design exams.

    Are they like the Case Scenario Questions out of the MS-Training Kit books?
