70-291
Slayed the beasty yesterday. I got 860/1000 in the end

46q's + 3 Sims

Usual stuff WSUS and DNS and a bit of routing. Nothing to hard if you have read the books.

I used

Prep Logic (which after the mess about at the begining were really good)
MeasureUp
Q's that come with the MSPress book
MS Press Book
Exam Cram2 book

I am now a MCSA 2003 finally, after nearly a year of trying to do this one. (I have done 3 HP APS exams, Server+ and 70-350 in this time tho so haven't been wasting my time)

I don't know whether to do CCENT or 293 next? Anyone got any tips?????

There is no bad choice - either 293 or CCENT is good.

nicely done mate may i ask why you may be choosing to do the CCENT, i mean 70-291 covers quite a few things taht are in both the CCENT and CCNA. Have you taken a look at the CCNA ?


Thanks,

Dave

I haven't really had any advice on it tbh. I want to do some CISCO but thought seeing as I have not done any before i'd start at the bottom and work my way up.

Would your advice be to go straight for the CCNA then?

How did you do yours? Was it self taught, on the job or training course?
