Thinking about taking this route for my next exam 70-412

 

Anyone else thinking about it or have done one yet?

Will probably give this a go when I get around to 70-410

Actually maybe not, you're not allowed to take notes compared to being able to do at a test centre. Bummer.

Or eat chewing gum! I need to eat chewing gum it helps me concentrate? Well.... Maybe not but I'd definitely miss it!

Take notes?

 

You can't take notes at a test centre, you normally get a whiteboard to use but you're now allowed that with these ones.

Is this in writing anywhere? I honestly can't see anything...

Well, I have just done the 74-409 - Server Virtualization with Windows Server Hyper-V and System Center and passed it.

 

Took advantage of doing the exam at home and I'm impressed!

 

You have to jump through a few hoops and show them what feels like the world but once that's out the way you can just crack on.

 

I found it somewhat relaxing being about to do it in my environment. I highly recommend it. Ok you cannot take any notes and you are not allowed to read the questions aloud but it was ok!

 

I have the 70-411 left to do for MCSA and I won't be doing at a test centre!
