MCSD - Just the exam...

Default Just the exam...


I want to sit 70-316 but am confused about how I can just sit the exam
without booking a course. I've spent a fair bit of time studying using the
MS Press books and online sources, as well as doing various apps to test the
theory. Although the MS site mentions the exam should only cost £88 (here
in the UK), I have been unable to find somewhere (preferably in Leeds, UK)
where I can just do the exam and not have to pay thousands of pounds to do a
course.

Can anyone recommend a test centre where I can do just this?

Thanks in advance.

R Sutcliffe

Ofcourse it is always better to attend a course, but you are not required to
take a course before you go
to an exam ...
Check out with one of the exam providers .. Vue or Prometric to schedule and
exam in your area.
You'll be able to use their test center locator as well.
Most CTECs will also be test center, so you could call one of them to
register for an exam only
