Take that, 70-297, and that, and that...

Well if you've not already guessed. I passed 70-297. No bootcamps, no
braindumps, just good old fashioned study. It may have taken a while for
this one to come, but in a funny kind of way, I'm glad I failed this one a
few times, because it proved that I wasn't ready.

For anyone else contemplating taking this exam, I'd recommend giving
yourself twice as long to study and prepare for this one, than you normally
would. My mistake was to try and rush it, I thought I could complete it
quickly, but I couldn't.

Now I can say I'm an MCSE (not much in the big scheme of things!) but the
personal challenge and achievement were my motivating factors.

Thanks to everyone in this group who provided help, guidance and humour.
Your comments were appreciated.

And to anyone who is having difficulties with any MS exam, all I can say is
stick at it, if you know your stuff, you will pass.

regards

Rob...

Wow, congratulations! 70-297 and I do not get along very well. It is the
only exam I ever managed to fail [grumble].
