To all of you that know about MCSA and MCSE exams which of these 70-410, 70-411, 70-412, 70-413, 70-414, 70-415, 70-416, 70-417 exams pulled of a fight for the completion of a cert? If you have taken one exam more than once how many times did it take to pass the exam and what challenged you?

Thanks for sharing.:)

    I personally struggled with the 70-411. I had never used NPS prior so remembering the terminology was rough.

    I had to take 417 3 times because I was not ready the first time and the second, I don't know what happened there. I think it was little sections that got me the most. Not being able to go back and revise my answers when I realized what I had done.

    I failed the 413 last week with a 600. It's my fault for deciding on a Thursday to go take a test on Monday and never really putting in the book time. I felt good about the material and the test didn't seem difficult while I was going through it so I was surprised with the fail. While actually reviewing the material since then I think I got all the hard questions right, so I probably skimmed over the easy questions and made some dumb mistakes. I'll set up the second shot next week.

    417 was the most difficult for me, because it was 3 exams in one. If you havent labbed a lot or really used the technology a lot, then studying for 3 exams can be a challenge.

    My opinion (to date) is the 412 section of the 417 upgrade exam required more time and concentration than the other sections. I'm sure my views will change once I undertake the 413.

    413 for me, however that may change after this weekend when I sit the 414.... :/ failed 413 on the first attempt, my advice to anyone is to keep practising on your lab environment, until it becomes so familiar, it bores you!
