    I sat the above this morning. Had a 5 minute wait after accepting the various disclaimers and confidentiality wotsits to be told the test had ended. I was beginning to wonder if the exam had already begun and this was part of it when the first question appeard?

    Any hoo took me ages I completed the test reviewed all questions with an hour to spare and got an 820 so I'm fairly pleased with that!

    Hi all

    Passed 70-290 yesterday (just!) AND dont those b****y disclaimers drive you nuts!

    Interestingly enough, I seemed to have more questions on DR and backups than anything else! Out of 45 questions, I reckon 15 were on DR/backups, 10 on user accounts/AD/GPOs, the remaining topics scattered around in the other 20 questions. There was only one question on IIS. Just goes to show that taking a MS exam is not an exact science!

    One more to go to get MCSA..... the 70-291 beast awaits!

    Congrats on the pass! I'm doing this in 6 weeks, and pretty looking forward to it as it covers what I use in work most days. One question though, how long is the exam. I've heard everything from 4+ hours to 2hr 45 and more between!
