6th months & 5 tests later...I finally passed the damn thing with an 889!! Ah, I swear I was giving up after this one, this has been a very tough experience failing over and over. After the first test I realized it was not a test I was going to breeze through relying on my experience since I have used and administered XP for 4 years plus. I took the final four seriously. First test was like 580, then the next three were all 632 (I was so upset the second two times having the exact same score...thought there was a flaw somewhere seriously).
I used the MS Press, Exam Cram, virtual PC and this site for studying...and the fact that I took the thing five times probably helped being I saw many questions that were familiar from previous tests. I was stubborn about Transcender and didn't want to spend 70 bucks on practice exams when the subject is something I have done for 4 years (Probably would have passed 3 tests ago eh?). This site was a great last minute review for me so thank you for that.
On to 290, hopefully it is as similar to the 270 as everyone says. I already have the MS press for it. So don't feel bad if you are on test three, I failed four times before I finally got it.

Big Woot,
Patrick
