Re: My experience becoming an MCAD

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



I got extreemly lucky with my web apps exam. 3 questions were pure ADO.Net
and most of the others were questions that most .Net windows developers could
have answered without knowing much ASP. The real winner for me was an obsure
XML question which just happend to something I ran into by mistake the night
before the test while looking for something else not even related to my
studies for the exam. Obsure questions I understand they give more points for.

So as it turns out I only studied for Web apps for about a week (full time)
and passed the first time which has not been the case for any of the other
exams given I dont have any real life experience. The windows exam I studied
a TON (6 full times weeks I think) so much of what I learned there spilled
over to the web apps test. Pure luck on the questions I had.
