    I passed on Thursday, March 20!

    I sat this one 7 weeks after passing the 70-271. My score was lower on this one, almost 100 points lower, which makes sense, as I found it much harder. I don't have loads of real-world experience configuring XP desktop apps for users, and that really worked against me, as it should, because it's supposed to be a test of real-world competency.

    I learned the Customize dialog box like the back of my hand, and they barely touched on it! It was just one question at most.

    Anyway, it's all good. I'm really on my way now. Next stop, 70-270 towards my MCSA! :D

    (My testing center rules. Had the room to myself again.)

    Congratulations on the pass. A word of catuion with the 70-270. I think you will find it a much more difficult prospect than the MCDST as it's much more in depth and also relies on your knowledge and experience of using XP Pro in a domain enviroment.
