First attempt and first time I ever failed a Microsoft exam. My score was 675

. My results show the bars 3 quarters of the way up for all the topics except Plan and Implement Group Policy which was only half way up, so I guess I suck in that department. To be honest I am not really liking this feeling.
I had loads of fun at the testing centre the person next to me had problems with her exam and the site techie was trying to sort it out with a guy over the phone. Then I had two crashes through my exam with "Fatal errors" causing the machine to log off!!! Which again site techie and guy on phone had to resolve, by moving me to another workstation.
I used MSpress, Sybex, and CBT Nuggets, but still couldn't beat it. I do have a second shot however I am feeling a little wounded at the moment. I did have confidence in my server 2003 ability, however this fail has knocked it somewhat.
The best part was that, I had ordered Self Test software about 2 weeks ago which got lost in the post twice, so they said they were sending it a third time. It had been a few days and I still did not receive it. I got back from my exam today to find it posted through my door. THE ULTIMATE P!SS TAKE!!!
I think I will leave it a couple of days then start to go over all the material again, and give the Self Test software a try. I suppose I will re-schedule at some point.
To anybody taking this test. Make sure you really gem up on group policy and even the more obscure things (Which you may just skim read over) like different ways of initiating replication (Not just in sites and services) and modifications to Schema (Where to do it and the effects etc). I sat in the exam thinking I remember reading about that, but can't remember what it said for a couple of questions.
I am off to scream into my pillow now, if you will excuse me
