    After my last post, I once again postponed sitting the 70-291 for a week, and finally sat it on Friday 18th.

    All I can say is that it lived up to its name. The three hours and a bit I was in there, was a real roller coaster for me - things I had totally prepared for, and many curve balls.

    I scraped in with a 747, but as we all say - a pass is a pass, and so thats my MCSA. I started back in October 2007 and finally got it.

    I agree with borec's post completely, when you think you are "In the zone" go for it - and take the second shot advantage while its there.

    Off on an Exchange course next week for a rest - thanks all for the advice/support/information along the way.

    I'm here raising my glass to you all - cheers

    -David
