Hi guys,

I'm starting 70-291 within the coming week and wondered if anyone would like to join.

You can get more details by PMing me.

[This study group will run until every member who joins (joins within the next 2 weeks) has completed the course material and sat the exam.]

Cheers

 

what does a study group actually consist of?

 

Well, what we'll do is, all join an IRC channel or MSN conversation (any form of communication).

Get to know each other, our experience and stuff like that to make it a more comfortable enviroment to talk in.

Then in the day, or whenever you get a chance, do some revision. Then when you get home or whenever you want, arrange to come on IRC or MSN and talk about what we've done and anything we got stuck on, so we can sort it out so we all fully understand it.

It's basically to support each other and carry out stuff from the learning material but have somewhere where you can talk about it with people doing the same thing as you.

Sorry for the poor explanation, but you never know how a study group will go.

Aslong as you have people who are dedicated to learning the course material and want a group to talk about it and help each other, then it's great!

 

I would like to join where possible as its the next exam in my MCSA track

I will hopefully have a dedicated machine soon for this, just need to sort out a technet subscription

 

Even though I have passed the 70-291 exam, I would be happy to support anyone in this group.

Hit me up on MSN, and if I'm online I will help out/

Oh I wrote a study guide which can be found here

 

I'm learning 290 at the moment but i would love to lurk in an IRC channel and pick up anything i can if nobody would mind?
obviously 291 is after 290 and i'm guessing things would compliment it

it'd probably be best to just invade a public server like quakenet

-daz

 

If anyone want's to join the IRC channel, its:

#StudyGroup

 

Which server is that on?

-daz

 

irc.thedome.us

 

For all that join..

Tip: Don't join the channel that's called #SPAMTRAP
For some reason it seems to ban you!?!

-daz

 

Is this the exam known as DEATH BY DNS?

Just passed my 290 and waiting for work to say if they are sending me on the course + exam for this one though they won't let me do the 270 but i'll do that off my own back as i've already got my MCDST

 

I dont suppose anyone has created a channel on Quakenet for certforums or the studygroup?

 

So not only called the beast it got a 2nd nick name

Losing the will to live

 

anybody getting back on this one then?

 

Sorry this not being a huge hit, no one seems to join the IRC channel.

And my current working arrangements mean that I dont even know what im doing in the evenings
