Class is finally done. All in all it was a great class. I sure wouldn’t have paid what Spacely paid for it, though. At least not to send *me* to it. I am glad I went however, as it gave me a bit of encouragement towards the test. If that class was meant to prep someone for the 70-270 test, then I should be fine. We’ll see however, as logic is often a scarce trait in the Microsoft world… I’ll be taking my practice test here soon, and will update with the results. If I can take the practice test and score 90% or above on all sections, then I can bring that into my real test and the testing facility will pick up the cost of my passing test if I were to fail beforehand. So, basically, if I fail once and then pass, I only pay for one test. That’s a bit of a relief for me. :)

Our teacher, as I said before was quite good. My only problem with the course was the subject matter. It was (1) Microsoft and (2) not advanced enough to keep me awake. The problem I have with the tests is the terminology that Microsoft uses, and their “Best Practices” which often aren’t practical in the real world – go figure. Anyway, once I pass this friggin test, that should make it that I can get promoted at Spacely, and get a pay raise out of it. More importantly, it will free me to use my spare time towards the Open Source realm…

We shall see…
