Hi,
Looking to take 70-296 with next two weeks.
Does anyone have any recent experience of this one? Certainly interested if this year or particularly interested if within the last month.
Thnx

Less than 1 week to go now.
Any final suggestions or updates on this one?

Looks like we're waiting for you to be the forerunner, Snafu! Sorry about that. If I don't pass 70-292 next week, I'll be attempting the 70-296. Hopefully for you, you'll have already passed it, but if not, I'll be glad to share my experience as well.

Just heared from another source...
70-296 in two sections, 50 Q's 130 mins.
First section, many DNS, second section many GPO's. On a review of the test against a dump i sent her, she feels about 10 to 15 Q's not in latest dumps. Feeling that about 40 seem to be 'common sense' (probably meant makes technical sense) but at least 10 were mind bending. Having to read and re-read many times the Q@A's. And BTW, she's no slouch in the technical knowledge area. Many more certs than me!
She failed with mark less than 625, no graphical representation of marking.
I promised not to be too specific dont want to be too specific about test centre or location.
Hmm... thats very much similar to the 70-292 experience we've been hearing about.

Passed with 887 on 17th May.
I think success depends partially on where you actually sit the exam, i.e. Thomson Prometric or Pearson VUE, from what I can gather from various forums and talking to people I know.
Note that some people are getting 40 questions and some get +50. Yes, I know that updates will happen etc...
P.S. Snafu you are doing a great job with the Transdumper formats!
