More Microsoft exams!
Since I last wrote I've gained my MCTS: .NET Framework 3.5, Windows Forms Applications accreditation...I eventually got my finger out and did this once I realised my MCAD.NET expired at the end of March 2009:(
The first exam wasn't too bad...I took Exam 70-536: TS: Microsoft .NET Framework – Application Development Foundation. Clearly some stuff was the same as I'd covered for my MCAD.NET but there was some new stuff in there plus there were some practice exams both in the Microsoft 70-536 Training Guide and out there on the internet.
Second exam, Exam 70-505: TS: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, Windows Forms Application Development, again wasn't too bad but much to my surprise there were no third party exams available, particularly from the likes of Transcender as of April 2009 (true to form, I've gone and looked now and there is one!!! Serves me right for being too keen to take the exam!!!).
Got 982/100 for 70-536 and 914/1000 for 70-505 so did OK:)
Next up is Exam 70-503: TS: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 – Windows Communication Foundation Application Development once I've finished installing .NET Stock Trader 2.04 on Windows Server 2008 (which I've never played with before!!)....
