Microsoft Certification - MCTS SQL Server 2005

Default MCTS SQL Server 2005


Has anyone taken this cert recently (Within the last three months) and
what is the general feedback- I understand that they have added a
number of simulation exercises in place of multiple choice...

I am using the Self Paced MS Press guide, exam cram and the sql server
books online for studying... I also use SQL2K5 at work and administer
our test systems... mainly db creation/backups, creating logins and
some testing for performance...

Any feedback from recent test takers would be great... thanks!

I think 70-431 is the only MCTS exam for SQL Server 2005, isn't it? Are
there others? I know there are also two MCITP exams in SQL Server 2005,
but I think there's only the one MCTS...

I took this at the beginning of the year, and yes there are some simulations
that you have to do along with the multiple choice. I used the Microsoft
Press books and my experience on the job as study aids and I scored in the
900's. It wasn't that bad of a test overall, but you should know SQL 2005
overall, pretty good, to include the most efficient method of doing common
tasks in SSMS before you attempt the test.
