Well I wasn't too far off the mark, I scored 675...

After viewing my score report I could see where I need development:

*Configuring and troubleshooting applications
*Configuring and troubleshooting connectivity for applications
*Configuring application security

I scored high on the other two...

Going to studying for another week and take the test again next weekend...

I would say know the following;

Firewall settings
Outlook Express settings
Internet Explorer (Internet Zones, Cookies, etc)
Windows update Settings

from what i can remember...

Congrats, you did your best. Next time you will sure do better!

Remeber the different IE zones, OE settings, go over the material until you feel like you are dreaming of it. Do the ms assessment and then for sure your will know that you can pass. You probably missed it by 2 questions.

By the way did you sign up for the 2 for 1 exam promotion?

D-boy

Thanks for the advice, I'll make sure I focus on those too, I think that's part of why I failed I didn't really understand them that well...

You'll get it next time for sure. Make sure you concentrate on those topics you outlined, and don't forget the other two. Just because you scored high on them this time.......Also, you gotta love the 2 for 1 deal!!

Also dont forget the applications. They are an important role in 272.
