Passed "Developing XML Web Services and Server Components with Microsoft Visual C# .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework" aka 70-320 on Wednesday 26th October.

Bit unusual, registered for the exam via Pearson Vue website as usual, but noticed that I could take the exam in Wiltshire College in Chippenham (Which is much closer to me than Bristol where I took the first 2 exams). So I book it and turn up at reception, when I eventually speak to the exam coordinator, she is a bit flummoxed as being a college, they do not take entries from the public, only their students. They let me take the exam anyway and I passed (Yeah!).

So officially MCAD now.

Off to USA for 2 weeks work on saturday 29th Oct. Intending to study for next exam whilst over there. Plan is to take "Implementing Security for Applications
with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET and Microsoft Visual C# .NET." aka 70-340.

Only problem know is that I dont think that Kalani has published a book on this subject, so I will have to see what is available at the local Borders when I reach America.

Late entry I know, but I passed the “Developing and Implementing Web Based Applications with Microsoft Visual C# .NET and Microsoft Visual Studio” aka 70-315 on 27th September.

Onwards we steam to "Developing XML Web Services and Server Components with Microsoft Visual C# .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework" aka 70-320.

Have been a week away working in London, but hopefully now back on course. I am looking to get the exam before the end of October (When I will be in the States working for 2 weeks)

Intention is to then crack on with exam number four whilst in the States working and pass sometime during November. That just leaves exam five for December.

As you can see, I have yet to decide on what my final two will be. But either way, intention is to be MCSD by years end, then... who knows...
