Pass

1MeanAdmin1MeanAdmin Member Posts: 157
Passed the "Beast" yesterday with 763. My worst MS score, but I want to finish MCSE asap (want to pursue LPIC certs and many others).

Lots of questions on DNS and RRAS, some on DHCP, and only a few on WSUS ( icon_eek.gif )

Used MS Press (Good) with MeasureUp and Sybex (not so good).


Next: Beast's Sister (70-293).
Will be using mainly Syngress and occasionally MS Press.

    Congratulations, remember a pass is a pass icon_thumright.gif

    Was this the first attempt?

    Thanks :D

    Yes, first attempt.

    Tried to take the test 2 weeks ago, but Prometric software crashed before I walked in icon_evil.gif
    While waiting for yesterday's free retake, repeated 70-291 and started 70-293 (Ms Press)

    What exams have you taken so far?

    you got it my friend! I find when I actually schedule the exam, my focus gets stronger. Perhaps tomorrow is the day for that?... icon_cool.gif

    Awww man and I'm getting left farther behind now! And here I thought I had a chance to catch up! :) I don't think I can fit the beast in the next couple months. I definitely know what you mean about scheduling the exam gives you focus. It is so much easier for me at least to work when I have a deadline to focus on. It worked for the Security+, though not so well for the 270. :D

    Congrats. :) I've scheduled it for Friday. The past week and a half, I've done nothing but study. I took the week off last week, just so I could get ready for the exam. When you schedule the exam, you get that much more focused.

    I'm also getting the day off on Thursday, so I'll be studying all day on Thursday.
    Current certs: MCP (210) MCSA (270, 290, 291 and 680) MCTS (680, 640)
