First test

I have never taken any of the MS exams before. Everything I know was either through military training or from experience (10 years). I've scheduled my first exam, 70-228, and was looking for some tips. Any help for a first time test taker? FYI, I went through the 2072 class last week, but I know it leaves some holes in the test material. I have about 3 weeks to fill in the holes before the test. Thanks.

What's wrong with taking 70-228 first? I took the associated class last week. The 5 day class that goes over everything. I've been using SQL 2000 for about a year now by reading the books and the fact that I "have" to do it in my job. You know, the "we got this new software now figure out how to use it for us" thing. My company finally agreed to send me to the training class and I would like to take the exam now. Basically my question was about the overall exam experience, not specifically the 228 exam.

Thanks

Thanks I'm kind of going into this test as a learning experience. If I pass it, great. If not, I will at least learn something. I get reimbursed for these test from my GI Bill anyway, so they are basically free to take!
