Passed!! wooooooooooooo

Well only by the skin of my teeth! got dead on 700, abit disapointed but considering the stress ive had for the pass few weeks and not being able to study ive done well......

Still alot i need to learn, i like to know it inside out, but i think with all the GPO and OU`s, Server 2003 will fill me in on it.

So show me the 70-290 forums!! woooooooo

P.S - excellent technotes as always!

    The server exam will indeed cover those topics again, more in depth but GPO and OU`s will be covered more heavily on the server than XP exam.

    OK OK, help the rest of us uderstand what GPO's and OU's are and how they are used so we know what we are reading. :P

    Just a very brief high level overview will be great.

    Thanks,

    Congratulations man! icon_cool.gif

    I been bogged down by numerous jobsearches and couldn't get myself to begin studying the Sybex study guide. Yesterday, i started reading the Dummies book and i just can't stop. Its an awesome read, reminds me of Todd Lammles book. I would advice it to anyone. I'm now on my way to MCSE. icon_study.gif

    Cheers mate

    I love Dummies guides, I used them for A+ and Net+ and they worked great and are a good read.

    Congrats. Many of my students have had difficulty understanding the printing process because Microsoft uses different terminology than they are used to. It is not heavily covered on the exam though. Good luck on 70-290.

    Contraz, Robsong! It's good to see that you have this mini-journey. As for me, I'm been job searching that I have put off studying for this exam. Now that I have seen that you have beat me to the punch, I'm now motivated to get back into the game. G-studying on the 70-290.

    Congrats on the passing score. How did you know the score percentage? I thought Microsoft did away with releasing the percentage and only indicated PASS or FAIL??? This is what I recently heard from an instructor at New Horizons.

    I am preparing for my 70-270 also. So far, one week of classroom and lab work under my belt. I passed the transcender practice simulator today with a 760. A little bit more studying and I should be ready, a little less than a week hopefully!

    They did, but after the huge response from exam candidates who wanted to know their score they decided to introduce the score again. That's already quite some time ago.

    Oh ok, well I wasn't following the certification market much while overseas. What is odd is that a currently certified instructor told me this. You would think he would be aware of changes especially when they were quite some time ago as you indicated icon_lol.gif
