Hi Dudes

I'm struggeling to find motivation, I've been studying this for as long as i can remember on and off for about 6 months and I'm hoping to finally sit it at the end of the month. Is anyone at a similar stage and wanting a revision/study partner for the last few weeks?

Cheers Dudes, have a good week

Not doing this exam (or any other technical/professional exam for a while), but one tip:

Sign up for the free second shot from MS, at least if you don't pass you'll see and be able to gauge your knowledge.

That's what I did when I scheduled the 290 exam. Good luck!

yes me too got a feeling I going to be needing it this time, trying to study dns (started the 291 with dns study, as i hear its tested heavily), once i've got a good grasp of it i'll move onto the other subjects then keep dipping my toes back into dns.

Whats slowing me down a bit is that theres no way I can fiddle with this exam at work as none of our dns or dhcp servers are windows based, that and its the most complicated exam to study ive done yet.
