Yesterday, I cleared the 70-229 (Designing and Implementing Databases with Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000 Enterprise Edition ) MCP exam. One more to go (70-310). The 70-229 was pretty easy. Scored 931 of 1000, which is decent I feel.
Work at office is pretty smooth. No major work load for the past couple of weeks. Expecting some good exciting work in the next couple of weeks.
Today I had a small presentation on MCMS for our entire project group. Some kind of KT session, and everything went on fine.
Its navaratri season now, and today we have dandiya raas planned in our office. So, lots of dance and fun today. But, I don’t know if we (me and my wife) can be here for the full program since we have to attend a pooja at my grand parents house. (durga namaskara).
Update (10-Oct-2005): Gave the 70-310 exam too. Now I am no longer a MCP! I am an MCAD!

Like I had mentioned earlier, we are supposed to take up the MCAD certification exams. I have already cleared one of the exams (70-305 - Developing and Implementing Web Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic® .NET and Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET), and now its time to take up the next set of exams. So, back to bootcamps again.
Today we stared with the bootcamp for the 70-229 elective exam (Designing and Implementing Databases with Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000 Enterprise Edition ). The boot camp goes for two days.
The next bootcamp is for 70-310 exam (Developing XML Web Services and Server Components with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework ), and is planned for Monday.
So, 4 days back to back in classrooms. So, in a couple of weeks, I would be MCAD certified.

Cleared the first exam of the MCAD certification program.
ie, Exam 70-305 - Developing and Implementing Web Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic® .NET and Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET
Now I am a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) ! :)
Score : 981 out of 1000. ie, around 98.1% (70% is needed to clear the exam)
The exam was pretty cool. The boot-camps held a couple of days back at our office helped a lot. The dumps available on the net too helped.
2 more to go for MCAD !.
Update : Folks, If you are looking for dumps, I dont have the latest ones. Kindly have a look at braindumps.com

I might have to soon be a Microsoft Certified Application Developer. (MCAD) . My company is kind of sponsoring this. :). Its a good thing.
To get the MCAD certification, one has to clear 2 core exams, and 1 elective exams. The individual exams make you a MCP - Microsoft Certified Professional.
I would mostly be taking up the following exams :
Core Exams :
- Exam 70-305 - Developing and Implementing Web Applications with Microsoft Visual Basic® .NET and Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET
- Exam 70-310 - Developing XML Web Services and Server Components with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework
Elective :
- Exam 70-229 - Designing and Implementing Databases with Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000 Enterprise Edition
Yesterday we had a boot-camp for the 70-305 exam at office. And we had mock test took. Kind of ok. Manageable. Most of the participants cleared the mock test at the end of the boot-camp. Next is the real exam.
Wish me luck ;)
