Easy and predictable	marcinw on Monday, December 31, 2007

It is hard to say but majority of questions (and answers) are available in Internet (TestKing, Transcender, etc). I passed it quite easy today (with score 865) along with 70-350 (with score 841). I'm not sure if there is sense to further recertificate when exams for new Windows version available (but perhaps Microsoft will change something).

Passed 850	MMorowcz on Saturday, March 31, 2007

I had 4 or 5 case studies with about 30 or 33 questions. The most difficult part is to read through all the information before you answer the questions. I would recommend reading the questions first then reading the case study.

Not bad at all	smihpe on Sunday, November 12, 2006

892 and 45 minutes start to finish. Use common sense security and it is a breeze

This one wasn't bad.	js_birdboy on Thursday, July 20, 2006

Once you get used to the case scenarios it seems fairly straight forward. I took 70-294, 70-291, and 70-293 prior to this one so that helped alot. For me I had to go straight to the questions and skim the case for information pertaining to the question. Once I got all the way through the questions I reread the scenario and reviewed the questions once more.

Fairly easy questions but...	steve_steele on Tuesday, April 25, 2006

... there were masses of information to take in before you could begin to answer some of the questions. Which i suppose makes it a reasonable approximation of trying to assess a clients needs. It's the first of the scenario type exams i've sat and i didn't enjoy it. I suggest getting hold of a good practice exam for this to give you a good feel for where to find the relevant information. already having passed 70-299 helped. I passed with 919. good luck to anyone taking this.

Good Test	cewigginsjr on Monday, March 13, 2006

This test was good, having a Security+ as a background made it easier. I had 35 questions with 5 case studies. Know your PKI,SUS, and portable smartcard teachnology. 293 and 294 here I come, then I will have my MCSE.

Not too bad	jasonwbryan on Wednesday, September 07, 2005

Decent test...but not too hard. Definately have experience with security (duh!), SUS, IPSEC and L2TP.

Passed with a score of 892	Sweenso on Friday, August 26, 2005

I breeze through the questions. 5 case studies in total around about 5-9 questions in each. If you know your stuff for 298 you will fly through it, remember to study hard and it will pay off in the end.

Passed with 892	stachul on Wednesday, August 10, 2005

I passed this test with acceptable score. For well prepared people it is not a hard exam. Many questions are about mobile users, access control methods and SUS. No DNS, no DHCP. Several questions about CA and VPN connections. Good Luck for any candidates for this exam :-)
