1 Down, 4 To Go

I took my 70-229 - Sql Server exam today. 700 is a passing score. I scored 839! It was a huge relief. I wasn't very confident going in because I hadn't been doing very well on the practice exams until last night.

The two methods of preparing I recommend the most are...

1) Get Que's Exam Cram book for the test and review the "Cram Sheet" pullout. It's got great facts and tips in a quickly readable format.

2) Get a practice test (I used Transcender) and use it. At first I was just taking the tests and when I would fail, I would go read the books. Once I started reviewing the questions I missed and reading the explanations for why the correct answer was right and, more importantly, why the incorrect answers were wrong, I started to learn the material much better.
