Question For Those Who Passed 210

I plan on taking the 210 within 3 weeks. My question is what would those of you who recently passed this exam recommended really focusing on in my last days of study sessions. I am using the M$ books to study, and using Transcenders for practice but the questions are all over the place and seem that they are geared more towards the server exam. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks In Advance,

Jerseyboy

If you feel comfortable with all the exam content, then you will have nothing to worry about.

The Transcender is all over the place because the exam is all over the place

You will be surprised at how many questions involve network scenarios and connecting to it, which is why many will recommend studying for 210 and 215 at the same time. There is a lot of overlap in the material. If you're scoring well with the Transcender then you will do fine on the exam. Are you working with the most recent update to Transcender?

As for what to focus in on just before the test, for my test it would have been remote installation, unattended installation, and answer files.

(I took this one in July)

I Agree with Pavlov & Coffee Freak

I agree with Pavlov & Coffee Freak's posts. I passed 210 in March (took 2 attempts). Expect a ton of server questions and a ton of remote and unattended installation questions (sysprep, ripRep, annswer files). Also, expect to see quite a bit of command line stuff (with many switches) in the answer choices. Some of the command line stuff is bogus so if you don't know what's real and what's not the exam can really play games with your mind.

Good Luck.

If you go with the suggestions from Pavlov and CoffeeFreak you can not go wrong. I took the test about 2 weeks ago and that was a majority of the questions. Good luck.
