I'm taking this thing in two hours. This will be my fourth MS exam in six months, it's starting to take it's toll. I'm finding it harder and harder to stay motivated. Anyways, hopefully I have done enough work. icon_confused.gif:

    Congrads, if this is your 4th exam in 6th months, you are hitting it hard. Way to go!

    Without violating any rules, what areas should one focus on more than other?

    I would say that the objectives for this exam are not too deep technically but they are wide ranging and do cover a lot of material. The best advice I can give would be to study from as many different sources as you can. For example I read the MS press book, the exam cram book, watched the CBT nuggets, used the Measure Up and Transcenders practice questions, and each source included information that the others didn't or didn't emphasize as much. I definately recommend the CBT nuggests for this one. Also building the various different server roles on virtual PCs doesn't hurt.

    Your achievment is impressive. How many hours a day do you study/work on an exam before you take the test?

    I try to do at least an hour after work on weekdays and a few hours a day on weekends, I do this for a month to six weeks. Though if I feel bored or burned out from studying, I find it beneficial to take a break for a day or two and come back to it fresh.
