I am coming round to that way of thinking. Basically we all have busy jobs and studying for these things in your spare time needs a powerful incentive. If only a few employers actually value these things, that incentive doesnt exist.

I am going to finish the MCITP (since I only have the exam I am about to take + 1 more) and then look at a more generic qualification that still has some relevance to my job.

Well I passed comfortably. Exam was case studies each with 5-12 multiple choice questions - each was a mini-exam with its own time limit. I found it a struggle to assimilate all the requirements and answer the questions in the time available, but got there in the end.

If I had a criticism it would be that they need slightly fewer but tougher questions - there were several where it was too easy to discount two of the four choices leaving even a "braindump" candidate with a chance of guessing from the remaining two. Then again, some were pretty tough.

Right just 70-442 to go now and then I am going to have some time off from certs I think.....

Congrats!

A "braindump" candidate doesn't need to discount 2 of the 4 choices and guess from the remaining two... a "braindump" candidate will have already memorized the correct answer through cheating.

I am booking my first attempt at this exam for next month. What percentage is required to pass? Is it multiple choice and simulation?

Does anyone have any good resources for me to learn more in-depth about unit testing and benchmarking?

Thanks!
