 Advice from a first time test taker
I took my first Microsoaft exam this morning and passed. I have been studying 70-210 for at least three months now and I finally took the exam. The passing score was 540 and I got 640. I must say this test was harder than I expected. The material was exactly what I had been studying but the questions are much different than practice exams(transcender). To anyone taking the exams for the first time I would say make sure you know how to do all the things you are studying. For example, know HOW to move the print spooler to a different drive instead of just knowing you SHOULD move it to a different drive. I found this exam to be very procedural and hands on. I begin studying for 70-215 Monday and I will spend a lot more time DOING rather than drilling questions and facts. Anyonehave any advice for 215 ?

Congrats on your pass - sounds like you've already given yourself the best advice for 215 - hands-on.

Congrats on the pass!  I think you may find 215 somewhat easier than 210. That, and the fact that you have done some hands-on will help you pass. Good luck!

If you have access to M$ server then get some hands on and play with GPO's a bit and you'll be fine.

Well done on your pass!
For 215, make sure you have a good handle on GPO's and disk management (know what to do when good volumes go bad  )
Good luck in your studies.
