70-646 Action

Due to my big mouth, I took the 70-646 exam today. It found it more difficult than the 70-647 exam that I took a week ago, however, I seem to have passed with a higher score, 887.

Oh well that's SA and EA done on to Hyper-V (after a weeks rest, that I think I have earned)

Thanks.

Well the weeks rest seems to have gone out of the window

I picked up the Understanding Microsoft Virtualization Solutions book that I grabbed from MS a while back.

I am not a fast reader and I struggle very often with writing styles but this book is great so far.

I think I can say (without breeching the NDA), this is an Administration exam. Look at enterprise administration and enterprise administration tools.

Cheers dude, it's the upgrades that getting to be the killer

I have already realised that I need to complete 2 exams this month. Hyper-V is first up (I've been using it for my 2008 studies so I think a good look at SCVVM is all I need now) Next up is Citrix XenDesktop as I've got an expiring Prometric exam voucher (Citrix are going Pearson only from August 1st).

any sims on this exam and 648 ?

Stupidboy, while they are going VUE only, I believe they are offering to swap the vouchers starting soon (Prometric -> VUE). I'm on my iPhone but I'll try to dig up the relevant email for you in the morning.

I think it OK for me to say there were no sims (if this goes beyond the NDA some please tell me).

SWEET! Please let me know if you find the details. I had asked and was told that I would need to use it or loose it.

I used the MSTK for 70-646 and obviously the knowledge I had already gained from the 70-647 exam.
