The minimum passing score for the certification exam I just took (70-290 -- Managing and Maintaining a Server 2003 Environment) was a 700. Scores are between 100 and 1000.
My score was a 957.
Pardon me while I bounce around like a happy, happy idiot for the rest of the day.
One exam down, two to go!

Bravo! Virtual cake and ice cream! I hope you take time to relax and SAVOR this. Savor, savor, savor (I really like that word).
I hope when you get an important job you can remember what it was like before you knew all that stuff. I got so frustrated on a state website the other day. I found a form at the bank, we printed it out, and the notary public made a mistake. We tried to find the form again, and had to give up. I sent it to them with the mistake, a request for funds held by the state that belong to my mom.
Congrats. Bouncing is sometimes known as plyometrics, very good for maintaining or adding bone mass.
The certification exams are scheduled through Prometric's website -- but your grandson might wanna check this out:

Thanks, everybody! The certification covered the joys of managing and maintaining Server 2003 - or in short, Microsoft for Networks. ::wry grin:: And it did actually go a long way towards helping me understand more about how web servers work, among other things. As for navigating Gather, it didn't cover that -- although I do know a few tricks. Should probably publish an article about that soon. ::grin::
And yep, Donna, I'm pretty confident that I know how to actually meddle with networks - my biggest fear was that I wouldn't be as good at answering their questions on the subject. Before I took the exam, I set up a small (well, very small - a server machine and a client machine) network using some of the junker machines that my training facility had sitting around and some spare parts. (Ironically, the school's DHCP server isn't working, but I managed to set one up for my micronetwork. Now if only they'd hire me to do their tech support...)
If the actual Server 2003 program weren't $999 (for just the 'standard' version), I'd buy it and see about setting up a home network.
