Today I passed the TS: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - Implementation and Maintenance exam (70-431). I managed to use my free exam voucher given out at the Visual Studio 2005 launch with just eleven days before it expired. The exam had a good mix of multiple choice and interactive questions. It was the first exam I’ve taken with interactive questions. I found them straight forward providing you know the tool.

There has been a lot of talk between my friends and colleagues about the place for these certifications, especially with so many braindumps available on the net. My feeling is that it’s like many other things in life - what you get from it depends on what you put into it. If you study and practice without cheating, the exams can be a great way of gaining insight and a thorough knowledge about the software.
