But it payed off in many ways to have it done and over with. I didn't attempt the MCITP, don't think I will for awhile. I do have the Darril Gibson's book "Windows 7 Desktop support and administration: Real world skills for MCITP cert and beyond". I really like books by Darril and had to have it just to make sure if I wanted to continue with MCITP, but got busy with my BS degree and put it down for now.

4_lom Member Posts: 485Check out my notes for the 685, the are very detailed. I just passed it today. I used the MS Press book, the Gibson book, and CBT Nuggets. You also need to lab EVERYTHING on the objectives list (even Direct Access). I had a lot of questions on troubleshooting VPNs and DA. Also had some unexpected questions on Powershell.

I remembered some of the questions, a lot of which I remember getting wrong before, so I could correct myself. I felt like a nervous wreck for the other 2/3 of the questions because they were all asked in true Microsoft fashion. I honestly thought I was going to score worse than the first time I took it (565). I guess the studying paid off though. I went through the Professor Messer video twice as review and that helped a lot. -
