70-290 Managing and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Environment - PASS!

1 down, lots to go.

When studying for these exams I assumed a number of fundamental things-
  1. The exams will cover XP SP3 as clients and Server 2003 SP2 on the servers
  2. The exams won't cover technologies that have been out of support for a long time (eg Windows NT4 was retired in December 2004, so surely they can't ask me a question on that in 2013?)
  3. 10 years of experience with the product would be very helpful
One of my assumptions was wrong!

Obviously with the NDA I can't reveal what I was asked, but if you're thinking of doing these exams before they are retired you might want to read over some basic NT 4 networking.
