I'm pretty new to the Windows Server OSes. I started working on NT 4.0 in 1999, Windows Server 2000 in 2001, and Windows Server 2003 just a few months ago. I'm trying to pass my first Windows Server 2003 exam - 70-290. I attended the Microsoft 2273A class, read the Sybex 70-290 Study Guide, and the Microsoft Press 70-290 study guide. However, when I took a MeasureUp practice exam, I failed with a 53% and did not pass any objective out of five. I admit the possibility exists that I'm just too stupid to pass the exam, however I've been successfully working on networks and servers for over 20 years. The most difficult aspects of the exam seemed to be where you are presented with a very long scenario - I just can't keep the facts straight. Does anyone have a tried and true method for how to handle questions such as these? I'm going back to the books, but I would appreciate some study and exam taking tips.
