| Hey folks
I passed 216 yesterday the first time around. My test was very heavy in DNS (some tough ones) and subnetting (I was thankful with that since I am strong in it) with some other mixed stuff, some long, some short. Two of my friends passed within the last week also and one said hers was heavy in WINS with really long questions and the other said a mix or everything very little subnetting and shorter questions. They really keep us guessing, don't they? | |

| Way to be!!! You are good to point out some of the bigger areas to focus on. I was really suprised by the amount of coverage on WINS! | |

| Exhibits?
Yes, I seemed to have quite a few and so did one of my other friends. But the other said only two. This really does seem to be a good exam. I mean if you pass, you studied hard for it in each and every subject. The reason I say that is that the way they switch the tests around so much keeps you guessing what kind of questions you will have and makes you study each thing like WINS, RRAS, DNS, DHCP in greater detail because they seem to focus on one subject the most. If you don't know that one subject that they are testing on in depth, you are in trouble. Fortunately, I think I had DNS down quite well but the biggest thing that helped if I didn't really know an answer was to take out the answers that I knew were wrong. Some of the correct answers still wouldn't be the ideal situation but you are going for the best answer.
