70-270 exam; what's it like?

Can you tell me how many questions (I know this can vary in some other
certs)?
How long does the exam go for?
What, if any areas, were the questions heavily centred towards?
Have you got any helpful tips/resources for studying?

I'm looking to do this one in as short a time as possible so I can get the
second shot free if I need it.

Thanks in advance.

I bet you'll get more help from this link, than the group:

Most of the tests are heavily centered towards what you do not
know...seriosuly. Most of the tests have around 46-50 questions and may be
an adaptive format.

I would suggest looking at the exam page.
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/exams/70-270.asp

This is a pretty good guide:

I would suggest the free Microsoft elearning course for the MCDST tests.

It might not hurt to try some of the free online items from

He's right. You see, M$ has the test center install a specialized device
that scans your brain and evaluates your level of knowledge about
the test you are getting ready to take. It then generates a test
that covers the areas in which you lack information or skills.
It is all a conspiracy to make you fail the tests repeatedly.

I KNEW IT AND NOW I HAVE CONFIRMATION.

Of course, my original offer that those who fail can blame me through my
service is still available.

You have proof that you are crazy?

You should see the pile of documents signed by psychiatrists that I've
accumulated. One of them actually reads and I quote "crazy as a sh1t house
rat."

I have a document of similar nature somewhere that suggests that the police
department in an undisclosed state suggests you use caution when approaching
me.

If you proof that you are crazy, and still have a job, then my hopes for
getting a job are raised somewhat.

I have a decent job. In fact, as a joke my co-workers gave me a shirt that
reads "Caution, does not play well with others." I wear it once in awhile
and everybody gets a kick out of it. Of course they're always a little
nervous because they don't know when I might snap.
