I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mach_u]

As some of you may have picked up from a couple of posts, I have been in Florida for the last week studying for my Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer(MCSE) Upgrade exams. After a few months of study(in addition to several years working MS client/server products and the previous 7 2+hr exams I had to take), a week of INTENSE training(12hrs in class and 2+hrs study each day) I took both of my 2.5 hours tests today and passed them both! I am now a 2000/2003 MCSE. Once again this probably doesn't mean a thing if you are not a big dork like myself but it's a pretty hefty cert in the IT world and I am stoked! :bigthumb
If anybody cares, here are the requirements to get it:

Congrats, those are no easy tests. I have my MCP working on the MCSA first, and then to the MCSE. I have been in the feild for about 8 years now, and those still are no easy tests. My biggest problem is I am not self motivated enough to get off my ass and study :coo1:

[08 Vette]

Congrats AJ, The only question I'd get right would be my name, and I'd have to look at my badge to check the spelling. LOL

[Pops Fun]

lol We get that a lot. I've had a lot of clients tell me the same thing. Hope that's not a bad thing? :dunno:

Congrats AJ.." You've got mail" Thats about all the Microsoft I know ...lol

If you feel pretty comfortable with the material, I would highly recommend doing a Vigilar/Intense School "boot camp" a week of just intense lecture and hands on experience. It's great to be able to push you to the point you feel comfortable taking the tests. It's not just cramming for the test either, you come away having picked up a wealth of information

[BigBadStang]

way to go dude!

[DeckerEnt]

Happy Birthday AJ!!!!!!!

[mustangboy]

[abush1971]

[PaulFiveOh]

A+,N+, and MCP with server and XP Pro.

No offense, but those are cake walk compared to MCSE....but definitely a solid start.

[REDHOTGTGIRL]

YAY! Good job honey! I know you had to put a lot of work into this and I am proud of you. Can't wait for you to get home today!
