70-680 in the bag

in Windows 7 exams
I passed today with a 960!

I've taken quite a few cert tests and I have to say Microsoft knows how to write difficult, difficult questions.

I used the official 70-680 book with the Professor Messer vids.

There's supposed to be no simulation questions on a Microsoft test. Someone coming from the Cisco world like me would look at that and think, "Yeah, this will be easy".

BAH! Microsoft made up for it with its clever wording and obscure questions.

I offer this advice to anyone taking this test: Read, Lab, expect the unexpected.

Next up: 70-640 or 70-642. I haven't decided which would be best to take first.

    Are there any practice questions you feel are similar to the actual exam? I know Boson's practice tests are great for CCNA, but i've never had any experience with MS exams so I don't know what to expect :/
    Fantastic. The project manager is inspired.

    Congratulations! I do think MS questions are difficult and really long at times.. I like Cisco's small and to the point questions.

    There were 60+ questions in total. (don't know if I can say total due to NDA)

    Thanks for all the great feedback everyone. Between this and ccna sec I've had no life for the last six months.

    What was more difficult to you? 70-680 or CCNA SEC?
