Hi Guys,
Sorry for the delay in getting back on here, just been so busy,
Here are some stats from Microsoft on Worldwide Achievers for SQL Server 2005. These numbers are current as of March 2008.
Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS)
SQL Server 2005: Business Intelligence Development……1,088
SQL Server 2005…………………………………..27,526
Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP)
Business Intelligence Developer…………………….478
Database Administrator…………………………….4,433
Database Developer………………………………..1,742
So you can safely say you would be one of the elite…so far.
70-445 wasn’t too bad, I passed with 925/1000, areas tested on are:
Managing SSAS
Developing SSAS Solutions by Using BIDS
Implementing Data Mining by Using BIDS
Managing SSRS
Developing Reporting Solutions by Using SSRS
Developing Business Intelligence Solutions by Using SSIS
Administering SSIS Packages
I had around 58 questions in total, comprising of single and multiple choice questions with about 5 drag and drops where you have to select the correct order as well, there are also alot of exhibits too…please be careful as some of the multiple choice questions do not tell you how many answers to select!!!
Best of luck to everyone, some of you have my e-mail if you need anything.

You do need to know your stuff as well in practice.
I have over 5 years practical experience using SQL Server, I would suggest you do plenty of reading and practice, combine this with the test papers available and you will be OK.
Good luck and don’t worry too much.

I am preparing myself to take Exam 70-445 in 3 months. I wanted to know whats the best approach in order to successfully pass the exam.
I have already got the dump/sample questions from post 888? Is that sufficient enough? Also, how many simulations are there? Are there any changes from the questions that you took?
Whats the best book to read for this? Microsoft Press Kit?

I found this on another blog.
“Hi all,
Seems nobody posted about these exams.
I have passed 70-445 2weeks ago, 70-446 last Saturday.
70-445 53Qs, No simulations.
70-446 61Qs, 6 Senarios.
I have not used any TKs for 70-445, just using MS Tutorials, SSAS Books and my experiences, result was 700 :
P4S was used for 70-446, result was 1000 (No Errors).
Pls note that this is Japanese-translated exam, any differences might exist (e.g. time-lag for affecting latest questions).
Good luck!”
I will be taking both these tests in a couple weeks. I got the above from this forum.

Hi guys,
I worked with SQL BI development for years but new to MCP, I passed 70-445 with 1000 scores on Dec 31, which is the first exam I take.
I used the training kit and the dumps given by dlangham (mentioned above), 100% questions are covered but I don’t remember which are from training kit and which are from ExamWorx dumps, anyway it works.
I’m aiming at 446 in the following months, unfortunately no 446 training kit available, does anyone advise how to clear this exam?
Thx!

::::: IMPORTANT NOTICE ::::::
Hi all,
WordPress suspended this blog last week, due to violation of WordPress Terms of Service. Reason to this suspension was a complaint from a Law Firm stating that Microsoft Certification materials and questions being shared.
Although I tried to create a discussion environment to discuss only questions, not to provide bulk answers; some of the users shared full answers and their email addresses, resulting in such a suspension of that post. As you can see, now everyone is suffering from that.
If this continues to happen for other certification related posts, same thing will happen once again..
I don’t want any contributors to this blog to share email addresses and direct answers to questions. If you want to discuss the ideas behind those questions, be my guest.. I won’t tolerate any comment violating Terms of Service.
