Hello all, I passed 70-272 today with an 863. I now have MCDST. There where about 4 questions on office all together. The rest of the questions where about IE and outlook express, some SP2 stuff also. Security center and firewall where touched on too. All and all it was a bit easier than 70-271 and I finished with 20 minutes left. I used the M$ press book and the Cram session book. The Cram session was better I thought because the M$ 272 book covered alot of the same stuff as the 271 book, it was word for word the same. Thanks to the people on this site for giving me the heads up on test content, and what to expect. Its on to 70-270 now and MCSA down the road. :D

    If I received the welcome kit and certificate for the 70-271 exam, what do I get for 70-272 and MCDST? Is there another certificate I get that states "MCDST", and do they send me an updated wallet card? I have to wait a few days for my results to post in my M$ transcript. Thanks

    Hello. We were all new once......anyway, MCDST is pretty easy....I used the FREE clinic available from M$. It has two courses, one for each exam, that's all I used, other than daily use of XP. You'll need a Passpord ID to login and access the courses, which you can find here.
