    Hi Everyone

    Been studying for the 70-271 for about 2 months now and I'm looking to take the exam in about 8 weeks time. What were your impressions of the exam - was it easier or harder than expected. I read on here that the MS Readiness Review exams are harder than the actual exam.

    im afraid its all a bit relative, I think the most valuable thing you can get from the 271 (bar the MCP status of course) is real world exposure to how MS present the exam, by that I mean their writing style, length etc etc. I found the MS readiness review to be fairly close to the mark mostly, but do take a moment to think that the software comes free with a book so may not be the most uptodate and trustworthy bits of software. Its more a marketing tool for measureup software which I've always used in prep for exams and never had a problem with.

    Mostly though its only as easy or as hard as your current exposure level to the topic or by how much study you have put into it.
