I'm taking the 70-290 this weekend. Anything you guys can tell me to look out for?

I'm trying to polish up some things on the studying side.

IIS, Perfmon , SUS, File sys perms, and Group Scopes, Im going to touch very lightly, ASR and Recovery concepts also.
 
Make sure you know Raid configs and why you would use which ever type. I had a few questions on that stuff. What you mentioned above should cover the rest.

Wishdiak,

I didnt do too well. The test wasn't hard at all, there was nothing on the test I havent seen, I just didnt know the material as well as I thought I did.

I'm in the mad scientist lab now re-tooling. I'm gonna take my time the second time around, but I hope to be ready again by the end of Feb.
 
Teknoratti,

That's a good attitude about it. I can't remember if I passed 70-290 on the first try, but I had a few exams that I had to face a second time in order to pass.

The best study materials that I used were the practice tests on the Readiness Review CD that come with the MS Press books, and CBT Nuggets videos, although I only used the latter for 70-291 and 70-299.

Both of those were particularly challenging exams.
