Re: 70-216 or 70-217
What you're talking about here is call "proactive
facilitation" in learning theory. It's the opposite of "retroactive inhibition". 217 is more focused that 216. The content of 217 is included in 216. So it makes sense to me to do 217 before 216. What do you think? Sincere |

Re: 70-216 or 70-217
I would tend to agree with you a little Neil, i only have little/none experience in Administring a Server environment, but there is none of these exams where a read at the MSPress book + Exam Cram wouldnt carry you over... Its a shame thats how it is...
Im just playing the game coz whenever i finish Uni, I WANT TO GET PAID!! Thank Mark =?Utf-8?B?TWFyayBbTVNd?= |

Re: 70-216 or 70-217
ok here goes...
210 --> 215 216 --> 221 217 --> 219 210, 215, 216, 217 --> 218 216 and 217 are BARELY and vaguely related... 216 is about network infrastructure whereas 217 is all about active directory. These are 2 very different subjects and that may share an objective or 2 but not many and not enough to base one exam over the other. As mentioned by Neil in a later post in this thread, 216 is the bitch/beast/ball breaker... 217 is a walk in the park in comparison. -- Sue MCNGP #69 Proud member since April 8, 2002 "Mark [MS]" <> wrote in message news A8CFA0E-3C95-4CD2-84E3-...> Although the wheel sounds like a good game Neil, im not sure.. > > What i really wanted to know was would one of the exams build you up towards the next one. i.e. Would 217 strengthen me for 216 or vice versa.
