| I have passed 210,215,217. Those were all a breeze. I
failed 216 the first time. I have purchased 8 learning
videos for 216, transcenders, and the cram stuff. I can
easily pass all that stuff, but the first failure has
gotten me a little shaky. I did download examsheets
before the site got busted. Does anyone know if they are
any good and if they are worth the time to read? I am a
network admin now, so I have no excuse to fail again. Is
there anymore material, prefer free downloads, that may
help?

They got busted? And you post, on a microsoft group no less, that you're
thinking of using them. That's like waving a flag at MS and saying "I'm a
Braindumber, come take my cert away!"
Maybe some hands-on with your own servers would help, seems like you've
done more than enough practice tests.

| Its not like I am going to use them. I did now know they
were a bad thing when I downloaded them a few months ago.
after I found out they were real, I did not touch them,
and I only downloaded 216. If I had used them I would have
passed the first time. More or less, I am just looking
for more questions worded in different ways to keep me
sharp.
Microsoft can not pull my certs because I am in posession
of a practice exam. How many thousands mcse's would
loose there certs if they did that and can you imagine the
law suits against MS if they did. They have over 1000
questions to pull from and the examsheet only has 200
questions. Microsoft is smart enough to have a copy and
to have changed the questions after braindump was busted
anyway.

MS will definitely read your post.
What they do about it is anyone's guess.

| Like I said, had I used it, I would have passed the
first time. Secondly, If MS reviews the purchase records
of Brain dump, theywill find that I only have the 216 and
that I failed the test the first time. What the heck
could they do,, give me an even lower score on 216 than a
fail? I can see your point, if I had all the
cheatsheets and they had record of it, it would be one
thing. There is nothing they can do. I am not going to
use them anyway. Whe I downloaded them, the site just
said they were the most realistic questions ever. They
never said they were the actual questions. Had I known
that, I would have reported them myself. I would be happy
to attach them to my next post. That way MS could have
them and remove them from the 216 test. AS I said, I am
not going to use them.

| In any event, if you read the OTHER materials you bought and set up a server
to test RAS etc. and practice with the Transcender you should do well.
You owe it to yourself to learn the material. It really isn't that bad but
it does take some work.

| It would be best for you to say that you never intended to
use braindumps, and once you realized that is what they
were, you refrained from using them. It is not wise,
though, to go on to challenge MS and everyone else as to
what they can do about it. Downloading 1 braindump
nulifies anyone of the certs per the agreement you
click "yes" to at the beginning of the test. So any
arguement to the contrary is pointless. Stick to your
first statement... That you did not use them, nor will
you and leave the arguement at that... You will gain much
respect if you can say you have had the power in your
hands, but let it go for knowledge...

You don't know any of the above, you just happen to think that might be
true. Infortunately it isn't (although it should be) or no-one would bother
braindumping....
As for suggestion on your next step I suggest you go do a different exam and
pass it to get your confidence back. Also that extra time might get some of
the information you learnt for the 216 to sink in a bit so when you start
studying it again it will all seem a lot easier.

| Glenn D. Crosse 2002-10-23, 8:23 pm |
| That is an excellent idea.
I found the 217 helpful for the 216.
The DNS definitely repeats itself on the 216.

| sincerely...they will prolly wont do anything...doesnt seem like he was
"cheating" just getting copies of mock exams. And taking a million mock
tests, study guides which prep you for the test so you answer questions
without really knowing what you are answering may make him a paper mcse
BUUUUT it's "legal".
IMHO, best to set up a cheap lab at home like i do with about 4 - 5
computers, install the eval OS's that come with the books and practice
practice practice........  also get the Transcenders man....they are good
because they dont just show you questions ....they also explain very
thoroughly each question so you understand why the answer is such.

ps. no i do not work for transcenders heheheheheh

| I do this for a living,, I have been in the IT field for 5
years now. Its not like I don't deal with it everyday. I
dont need a test lab, as I administer a wk2 network now.
I am just not a good test taker. I figure the more ways I
can see the questions worded, the better I will be. I
have about 400 differnet questions to look at. I took the
number 3 transcender test last night at home for
practice. This is the first time I have looked at the
test and scored a 896 out of 1000. I know the material,
just have a real worry about getting a "brain cramp" in
the actual test.
