    Scored 790 :biggrin

    Well as the title says I passed 70-284. Once again the testing engine crashed on me before I was presented with the first question :x The lady at the testing center made a few calls and had my exam re-set and it then worked. I had 30 questions and 100 minutes.

    The exam covered the whole range of topics including clustering, co-existance, routing group configuration and troubleshooting and general Exchange install and configuration questions. There were no sims.

    I used CBT Nuggets, EC2 (surprisingly good), Transcender and some tutorials on msexchange.org along with my work and home labs.

    So I guess that makes me MCSE 2003 which is very pleasing. I started the MCSE track in Aug 05 and it's been a hard slog ever since but def well worth it. Thanks to everyone on this forum. Time to sit back and relax for a bit and then have a think about what to do next.

    Cheers
    Rob.

    well done on getting an MCSE, I'm going for 284 for my mcsa (just bought the book today). On the plus side, I'll just set up my own mail server and tell my crappy ISP to get stuffed :)

    Hi Rob

    Hope your well. I am just looking into to taking the Exchange 2003 70-284 exam. I did the weeks course at Interquad and then looked at Transcender questions think I need to go through a book aswell. You mentioned EC2 in your blog is that a book ? Also would you reccomend another book apart from the MS Press ?

    Thanks and hopefully hear from you soon.

    Cheers

    Shaun
