| Name's Bryant and im age 15, sophomore at Mountain Pointe High School.
I walked into the center where i was supposed to test with my friend called (New Horizons) and the secretary didnt even pay any attention to us. Later we find out she thought we were there to try to make money by "washing windows or something"
I had come to take the 070-210 and my friend the net+. The room was small, three computers, next to each other with a small cubical wall-like structure inbetween.
Smoltering hot with a small door, no one came to check on us even once.
I had barely passed the test with 640 when passing was 540.
The test was extremely harder than i thought it would be. Considering all the practice tests, and primarly Transcenders i had achieved an average of 820...
The books i used: Sybex Cour four first edition.
and i got the Exam Cram Cour four. obviously i had only read the win2k pro book for each set.
The questions on the test were somewhat familiar but never directly expressed in the books, or the practice tests.
For those who had said "Just like the transcender" i have one word. Lies.
Either that or they decided to give me a brand new test.
It had covered everything from RIS installations to Deployment of service packs, and yet the answer for that question was wrong.
To apply a service pack to a distribution share you must use update.exe /slip "location"
but on the test they used the outdated update.exe /s"location"
It had covered printer pooling, Network fragmentation, small levels of desktop management, large amounts of sharing/security
All in all, im happy i passed, even with a 64% 
I really do suggest the exam cram book, without it i wouldnt have passed.
Im on to my next test: Windows 2000 server, or perhaps a beta windows .net server. who knows but its going to be hard | |

| A pass is a pass.
In my Exam cram its says;
Note: As of this writing the switch that is used for slipstreaming is the /s switch. Some older references state that the switch is /slip. That is no longer the case.
Just to clarify. | |
