70-680 in the bag

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

There's a thread about 70-640 or 70-642. Here's the link:

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

Devilry

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