AD Design

Quick question to those who have done the AD design module. I am studying 294 at the moment. Will this give me enough information to do the design module for AD?

Short answer... absolutely not.

I've been studying for the 70-297 for a little while on and off, and although there may be topics you learn in 70-294, it is by no means a substitute for studying the 70-297.

As some will say here, the 297 is an absolute beast, and I think that you need an good knowledge of pretty much the whole of the MCSE core to really stand a chance.

Yup, the 70-297 is a beast. Makes the 70-291 look easy IMO.


Me: You need to buy a couple of servers.
Customer: Whats wrong with the servers I have?
Me: Well, you dont have *any* servers just now.
Customer: WTF! I thought I did!

I have scheduled my 297 for the 10 of April. I am dreaming it at night.
291 and 293 were like a cup of tea.
