    I sat this morning. I passed with a score of 833. I rule! :D

    Now I am officially on the Microsoft certification track!

    It was a lovely sitting. I had the room to myself again. Some muppet was supposed to take an exam the same time I did, but he never came in. I guess he had something more important to do. But who cares anyway? I passed!

    The Transcenders were brilliant preparation. There's a reason they're so highly recommended.

    Congrats:biggrin:D:)

    I've just passed both this week they are incredibly similar. if you're coming up to 70-272 just make sure you have familiarised urself with the office suite toolbars and options menus :p

    Thanks everybody.

    Lev: Thanks for the tip!

    Asanthadenz: I hope I find 272 that easy too. I'm trying to bag that one in just 2 months. I'm a little behind schedule, so I'm trying to catch up. I'm supposed to have both of these certs by the end of March, based on the track laid down by my supervisor at work. And I'm supposed to get a hefty raise then as well, and I don't want to jeopardise it by missing my deadline!

    Ya, only thing you have to watch out is for those tricky questions in 272, you don't notice them until you go through the entire paper again and spot the mistake..

    e.g
    Sometimes they ask you "Choose the wrong answer from the list" and you assume they asking you to choose the right answer.. Very very tricky!

    There is some crossiver between the two yes, but not just the menus and options in office. I have found that people sometimes get caught out with the 272 as they assume it's gonna be real easy. Just make sure you have covered all the objectives and you'll be fine.

    Not having a pop btw Lev, I teach the MCDST at a local college and just want people to be wary and not underestimate the 272. :)
