On Monday I announced in this space that thanks to my friends at TekSource Corporate Learning (www.teksource.ca) I had nine (9) exam vouchers to give away for the Microsoft exam 70-659 (TS: Windows Server 2008 R2, Server Virtualization). The response was incredible, and I want to thank everyone who entered the draw!
I want to congratulate the winners:
- Gregory Longere
- Darrell Hutchinson
- Bruce Richardson
- Sumeeth Evans
- Mike Ruicci
- Victor Nichols
- Tyler Coan
- David Clark
- Jordan Samulaitis
Remember… by passing the exam you are a winner, but just by trying you are one too!
Now you all have an obligation to me to take the exam before the deadline – May 31st, 2012! I would love to hear how you did, and if you are proud of your success, or you felt that this contest prompted you to get out there and do it now instead of later, write it up… I’d love to publish your story! (Bonus points for anyone who scans their score report… you have to be REALLY proud of it for that!)
Hello Mitch, Thanks for the opportunity to take the 70-659 exam. I used the voucher to write the exam yesterday; unfortunately I only got 641 and failed to pass the required 700 mark. The report does high-light the areas I need to work on, before taking the exam again in about two months (aiming for end of July). At home, my lab environment was not up to the task of preparing for the exam; For the next go round, I will be using a test lab at work with more resources.
Thanks again. Bruce
