Best of luck! That's too bad! I'm very familiar with WSUS but have never actually played with SUS. Do you have time to download and play with it for a day or two? Just to get to know it's limitations and such. I don't even remember the kinds of questions they asked, so I don't know if you might be okay just knowing WSUS. Can you even still find a copy of SUS v1? If you want to try it, but can't find it, let me know and I'll upload it somewhere for you (it's about 32MB).

I have to that Honestly I thought I would have passed when I hit the end exam button.... It did not seem as hard as I was expecting, but apparently it was.... Anyway, With the time off I have for Christmas, this will help me to prepare to take it again Next week. Oh yeah, Got hammered with TS and SUS.... Didn't see one DNS question until near the very end where it seemed like all the rest were DNS.

I've seen quite a few posts from people who have both passed and failed that said that they felt they did better than the actual score. Once I hit the end button, I thought for sure that if I was failing this one it was going to be by a few points.... Instead I got a 600. The thing that might bother me even more is that I appear to have done well in every objective except Managing computers, users and groups....I would have thought this would be my strongest and yet I completely bombed it. Everything else on the bar graph appeared to be at 70% or better. So, now I have a bit of a tough choice to make...... The second shot is still good to sign up for... as long as I take the exam by the 15th.... I would have to take the retake by the 31st. Problem is, that for the 292 I have to wait 14 days before taking the exam again. So, should I attempt the 296 by the 15th and again on the 31st? Or continue trying to tackle the 292? Time is running out and I know that the 296 by itself will not give me an added credential, however the 292 by itself will. So you see, I have a bit of a problem.
