    Passed 70-297 today with score of 818, which I'm extremely pleased about :biggrin. Hated the time contraints for each testlet though; I'm sure I could've gotten one or two more questions right if the exam had been the same format as the other exams, but a pass is a pass as they say.

    Finally, I've got my MCSE. It's taken me 21 months, and TBH, I was really doubting myself after having failed my very first exam (70-270!). Looking back, that failure might have been due to not having sat a Microsoft-style exam in 8 years, and forgetting how much study needs to be done before sitting an exam. So I basically knuckled-down and devoted three months of study to each exam; I applaud those peeps who are able to sit more than one exam within 1-3 weeks of each other.

    Time for a looooonnnnngggg break now! At least I can enjoy my Xmas, no hitting the study books for a year at least. Maybe a year or two down the track I'll look at trying to get MCTIP. :eek:

    Wow, talk about a long term commitment then. 3 months per exams, and now it's finally over. Yes, you deserve a nice XMas break. So next, MCITP upgrade exams ;) ?

    Good job!
