2nd Chance Exam Offer Extravaganza
If you are about to register for an exam, take note. If you are not about to register for an exam... what's wrong with you?
Starting September 15, you will be able to get a free second chance to pass your exam (MCP or Dynamics). How it works is you register for the offer, THEN register for your exam. You can't do this yet, but we wanted to let you know it is coming so you can plan ahead and not miss out. Because it is really nice to know that if you don't pass, you can go in and do it again for free.
Not that you won't pass.
I'm sure you'll, um, pass. The first time.
But, you know, if, somehow, you don't, or whatever.
I'm just saying.
Get more info from Prometric.

Hi Trika, Do you know whether this offer can be used in conjunction with Academic exams and vouchers. Cheers JeffAnonymous

Is this just for Prometric testing centres or will it apply to Vue testing centre's also? -kenAnonymous

Ken, You can't register to take Microsoft exams at VUE anymore (post August 31st), so I'd imagine since the order is: Register 2nd Chance, Register Exam with Voucher Code, Profit... I'd say VUE only.Anonymous

I am an idiot. I meant PROMETRIC only.Anonymous
September 06, 2007
Yes Prometric only. To be exact, though, you CAN take exams with VUE, still, but the cut off for PURCHASING your exam with them was August 31. THey are still fulfilling on vouchers you have and still setting up our new releases and offering them until December.Anonymous

Trika, After you find out whether this offer can be used in conjunction with Academic exams and vouchers, could you check out whether we can use it with the MCT discount? Neither answer can be discerned from the Prometric web site.Anonymous

You can not use this offer in conjunction with any other offers (i.e. MCT offers).Anonymous

As noted in a new Trika posting, soon you will be able to take an exam over in case you didn't pass the first time. You can get the details on how to get into this program here.Anonymous

Re: Jeff Wharton: "Do you know whether this offer can be used in conjunction with Academic exams and vouchers." The last time that a free 2nd Chance offer was running, I successfully used it when registering for an academic-discount exam (the ones that cost half as much and have the 72-nnn numbers instead of 70-nnn).Anonymous

How about fully-paid up vouchers, ie ones paid for in advance and/or the ones which come with the self-paced training kits? Having paid out for that to get a voucher to cover the cost of the exam it would be a bit annoying if I then can't use it to pay for the exam itself.Anonymous

Hey When will the 70-600 be available!!!!!!!Anonymous
September 10, 2007
Wondering about using with pre-paid vouchers, and also wondering how many times one can use this? I need to take about 4 exams in the near future, and if I could take advantage of the free second chance for all 4, that'd be great!! If I can only use the code once, I need to think about which of the 4 I want to use it for. Thanks!Anonymous

AdamV, trying to get info on prepaid vouchers. Still checking on academic. John, here is what I read in some advance info: If the customer would like to take multiple exams, how can they get additional voucher numbers? After the customer registers on the Microsoft site for the Second Shot offer, they will receive a confirmation email. This email will provide them with a link where they can obtain additional voucher numbers if they would like to take additional exams.Anonymous

Any idea about where on MS site one should register? Ref.: Step 1: Register for Second Shot on the Microsoft site and receive an exam voucher number.Anonymous
September 12, 2007
On the Prometric site it says to register with Microsoft to receive the voucher number. Has anybody found the place to register yet? Please let me know!Anonymous

Will the 2nd Chance include exams like 70-291 or 70-299?Anonymous

Andre, JPE: you will be able to register on or after Sept 15 on the Microsoft Learning site (after that date look on our home page http://www.microsoft.com/learning or on the Prometric link above for the registration page). You can't register yet. I'll post something, too, when the registration tool is live.Anonymous

RE: Academic Second Shot is not applicable to academic exams for the moment (i.e. you can not register for 2nd shot then take an academically priced exam for your first exam—it must be commercial price). However, a separate, similar campaign will launch for academic exams in a few weeks in the U.S. only. Look for more information in October. RE: Pre-paid Answer I've gotten is that no, you can not apply Second Shot to anything but a new exam purchase. But I think people are still poking around about this; I'll let you know if I hear anything different. RE: Other Discounts No, Second Shot can not be used in conjunction with any other discounts ala MCT discounts.Anonymous

Thank you very much for an agile answer :-) PS: if you can make the logo builder and the certification planner in the MCP homepage work for Dynamics NAV certifications as well, I will carry you on my shoulders for one whole day!Anonymous
