I knew it would be difficult, and it was! Had plenty of time (135 minutes) and I needed every last nano-second. But I scraped a pass with 715. Would have been nice to have scored a little higher but considering that I had to do a lot of educated guessing I'm happy.

The 70-290 awaits, after some serious studying. Bring it on!

A pass is a pass. Congrats!

 

Well Done Bud !!

If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take you roughly before you felt ready for the exam ? I've got the 270 next but i haven't started yet.

It took me 1 year from when I started to when I actually took and passed the exam. But I got distracted! I guess the amount of time required before you're ready depends on a lot of things:
- How organised you are
- What learning material you have (Sybex book, Transcender & CBTNuggets for me)
- How much hands-on experience you have
- How quickly you grasp the concepts
- How good you are at keeping motivated

I guess that one of the hardest things is deciding when you're ready to take the test. Since I only scraped a pass I was only just ready. I was getting 68% in my last set of Transcender tests and that could be a good indication when you're ready

Got made redundant a couple weeks ago. That gave me the time and motivation to complete my studies and take the test.
