Wow,

Don't anybody blame the updated test for a failing score.
That was as easy for me as the A+ tests. I passed with
905 and barely picked up any books or study materials. I
was so confident that I aced it that I did not go back and
reveiw even one question when I was done. I answered them
all and then ended the test. If I went back and reviewed
them, I may not have gotten anything wrong. The thing is
that the 70-270 exam requires that you know something
about a server environment. Don't go into the test
thinking its all about Windows XP, because it is more
about Windows XP from a server perspective. If you have
any experience actually working in a server environment,
then you should have no trouble with this exam. If your
just reading books and playing with your Windows XP
desktop, GOOD LUCK!

Whatever the problem is, don't blame the exam, because it
was a piece of cake and I took the new exam on 5/6/05.
