Default Vcp 4.0

I am taking the VCP 4.0 tomorrow. I figure if I need to and fail it I can wait the 7 days and still take it on the 28th-30th. I hope to pass it tomorrow and have been reading all the whitepapers, reading and testing in my virtual lab.

I had seen that reference card before Hero and it is alot of interesting information. Thanks for sending it as I had forgotten about it over the past few months.

Here is my list of what I have used to prepare.

I am currently using all of the following sources in preparation for the VCP. These are not in a particular order.

Default Passed the VCP 4.0

I passed the VCP yesterday. It was a harder test than the VCP 3.5 test for sure. I studied hard for it and am glad I got it knocked out before I had to take a class.

Congrats on the pass!

I've been wanting to take this but I thought you needed to take their training course before you sit for the exam (and the training course is expensive).

Normally you do, but for those of us who are VCP3's, you could sit the exam and achieve the VCP4 cert without a class if you passed it before 1/31/10, hence why you see so many people sitting this right now.

Congrats. Definitely was more difficult than the VCP3 exam.

Default Vcp 4.0

Yeah it was definitely tougher than the VCP 3.0. Yeah I knocked it out so I did not have to pay for the class. I paid for my VCP 3.0 and spent $4K of my own money last year to get the VCP because I feel it is important and an wanted to do it.

I scored a 400 on it MentholMoose. I failed it a few weeks ago. I studied my butt off though to knock it out before the Jan 31st deadline.
