Default Exam 70-290 help please......


If you have passed MCSE exam 70-290 I really need your
help. I've had 3 goes at the exam now (@ $245 AUS per go)
& the best I've got is 695/700. I'm getting so frustrated
with it. I'm reading the self paced PDF training kit by
Dan Holme & Orin Thomas. Can anyone suggest anything else
I should be reading to getme over the line? I've tried
the only transcender & boson I could find which helped a
little but not enough to get me over the line. Any
replies (even with links) would be GREATLY appreciated.
Regards,
Kool

Always use more than one source for your study. Also, most MS Press
training kits include a section called readiness and review that has
suggestions for further reading online or in the resource kits. Do the
additional reading! Get a copy of the Resource Kit for 2003 and do
additional reading in the help files. Go back and redo exercises where you
are actually working the product. When you are reading, sit in front of
your server and use the OS to illustrate what you are reading about and try
things that are not in the exercises. Use the transcender to check your
progress and determine which objectives you still need work on. The more
you break it and fix it, the more you learn. Good luck and don't give up!

his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.
