Passed 70-284!

I took the test on Saturday and passed with a 790. Not great, but it's a pass.

I had perfects in:
managing security in the exchange environment
managing recipient objects and address lists

I performed well on:
managing and monitoring technologies that support exchange server 2003
installing, configuring and troubleshooting exchange server 2003

My weak areas were:
managing, monitoring and troubleshooting exchange server computers
managing, monitoring and troubleshooting exchange organization

Mostly my problem was I didn't focus in-depth enough on things that we didn't implement in my organization: ISA and Exchange, Microsoft Cluster and Public Folders in Front-end/Back-end configurations.

To study I had the Microsoft class, the ExamCram 2 book, Self-Test software and converting from GroupWise to Exchange 2003 at my organization.

One last thing, I didn't realize until after the test the large number of Exchange 2003 webcasts out there:
