MCITP beta exams (or, Happy Birthday Tyler)

I have been told that the registration problem for 71-646 and 71-647 has been resolved (we heard you were getting a "this exam has reached its cap" type message, which was lies! ). You can find the info on those betas, plus registration codes, here.

I thought I already poasted the info above but don't see it anywhere; if you get this twice I'm sorry. I'm on this loaner laptop; it keeps scrolling around at no provocation and is apparently choosing which of my posts it wants to publish, which is cheeky and annoying. In happier news, I'm eating a Friday afternoon Almond Joy, left by some building 18 benefactor and "made with chocolate * coconut * almonds;" a taste, if you will, of brighter times to come.

Parting Shot(s):

  • I'm leaving to catch the Tick, the Northwest's Premier Vanpool, in six minutes!

Your Number One Fan,
Trika

    I took them yesterday.  Exhausting experience with 68 and 71 questions, respectively -- took me 4 hours.   Interestingly, other than a single typo, they didn't strike me as beta-ish.  Good quality throughout -- for the most part, they were meaningful questions that you might very well have to be able to answer in the real world. I was surprised though that there were only a single or maybe two questions where you had to select more than one answer.  Also, no sims??!! What happened to the previously stated goal of having more sims to make the exams test more real-world skills?

    When will the results come out for the beta exams (646 and 647)?  I am assuming that you don't have to wait 8weeks if you write the exams at the end of January.  I have written both today and it was quite time consuming.  Thanks to Microsoft Learning for the free exam oppurtunity.

    Mohamud - As of the last I saw, 646 and 647 are planned to be released on March 20, 2008. So if things go according to plan, I think you should be getting results on or before that date.
