    Right... just got back from the centre... i get there and the guy says to me there is a problem.. you exam didnt download.. so we sat on the phone for 20 min to the UK that was sorted out.. little do they know they forgot to charge me! :dry

    Sit down and i got 90 minutes to do my 50 questions first couple were little monsters and i thought to myself damm you Exchange! Anyway on around Q35 i started relaxing knowing it wasnt as hard as it looked out to be... questions are logical if you been using Win XP and in particualar the SP2 Security Centre and Firewall for a while... I have vowed never to use exam cram2 as for me even though i knew the stuff they helpless... I was scared for both these exams i was way under prepared but thankfully what i learnt from 70-270 and experience pulled me through to become a Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician - this being my first proper certification!

    oh and got 890 on 272! :biggrin

    Thanks to SGK for suggesting this cert and thanks to everyone for the help and support you guys have given me since i joined a year ago!

    Firstly congratulations Zimbo

    Why are you never going to use Exam Cram material again? Any specific reasons behind this?

    I recently purchased these books for the 70-271 and 70-272 but haven't looked into them as yet, just had a quick look.
