70-680 Failed first cert exam :(

suitsonfire

Well, I am 3 for 4 on my IT certifcation tests thanks to a 682 score on the 70-680. I must say I did not feel completely ready going into the test but I purchased one of those vouchers that expired today so I had no ability to postpone. Well, at least I know what to concentrate on anyways and know what a MS exam is like! Any advice from others who have failed this one and gone on to pass, it sure would be appreciated.

first of all, don't give up.. you're right, take positives from this and get better for the next time.. I'm als taking the exam for the first time in May. Studying hard these days, refer the materiel.. in my case CBT nuggets, Self paced Win 7 and practicals on my Win 7 and W2k8. use VMware as well. so i wish you all the best, you've mentioned you were not completely ready prior to the exam, so make sure you won't feel the same next time around !

I'm studying now, most everyone at my job (I just started on 3/12/12) had to take it as a requirement back in September and they all past it after studying for like 2 weeks and some for only 1 week. Its a plus knowing what you need to study, don't wait, hit the practice exams and the book hard and go back and take it.

...you're a pro anyway you have 3 certs under your belt.

What's getting me in the study materials is the imaging and all the freaken commands for doing things. LOL! I guess thats why its called "Windows 7 configuration".

Thanks for cheating, Jay. There is a reason you had to spell out the url to keep it from being blocked. Next time, check your resources at CertGuard.

It's still cheating. It would be the same as getting the anseers to a test in school before you take the test. Wether you know the material or not is beside the point. Its whats ethical and whats not.
