70-210 & 70-215 Study Advice.

[Chrismenzies]

I have until December 24th (xmas eve) to sit my 70-210 and 70-215. I took the courses earlier this year and late last year.

Does anyone have any tips on what to concentrate my studies on in order to pass these two exams?

I want to take the exams at the start of November if possible, so I have a month of studying to undertake.

Grab a copy of the MS Press Test Prep books for both, 70-210 is quite easy but I haven't sat 70-215 (I went down the 2003 route but have both 70-210 and 70-270 exams).

I would also invest in Transcender exams and take those and any other exam prep software exams until you are averaging over 800, once you are (and aren't remembering the answers) then you should be ready for the exams.

Another thing I would do is also invest in some virtual technology (my preference is VMWare) so that you can install the software in a virtual environment and play with it rather than in the real world and having real issues occur on live servers. Also don't use your own workstation to test GPO's etc on, use a virtual one as well.

The real world is not about exam scores, it's about ability.

Thank you for that advice.

On the 210, is there any area I should be concentrating on or are all areas of Win 2000 Pro equally covered?

Use CBT Nuggets video training with Selftest software (or Transender) are what i have used for most of the harder end exams in the past. Online videos are excellent. They are broken into 20 - 40 minute modules that make it easy to do a bit each day and concertrate.

If you are getting into these exams for the first time you will find it easier to learn about all the obsure things you don't normally cover that the exams will.

Goodluck and just chip away.
