In this lecture, learn about the underlying "grammar" in software and technical subjects so you can focus your study habits. By studying the rules of a subject, you discover fundamental truths that can help you identify correct answers and lead you away from distractors.

In this lecture, learn the importance of translating technical terms into simple language to aid understand and retention, and improve test scores and on the job performance.

Coaching lecture. Can be taken at any time best taken in order. Should not be omitted. Covers:

• Test prep versus brain dumps
• Importance of streamlining knowledge pool
• Attitude
• What to do if you don't pass

This lecture covers managing the DNS server from the command line using dnscmd and some of the common switches.

Cumulative DNS Misc Knowledge Pool

This lecture introduces you to the high level strategy to test taking. Includes choosing the "least worst" answer, triaging questions to use time efficiently and maximize scores, how to deal with easy, medium and impossible questions, as well as what to do when you don't pass.

In this lecture we go over a sample exam with five questions leveraging General Strategy techniques to arrive at the correct answers.

This lecture focuses on paying attention to key sentences in the questions to achieve the correct answer.

This lecture focuses on using your knowledge pool and the process of elimination to answer difficult questions.

In this lecture learn how to read vertically to triage questions with long answers and leverage patterns in the answers.

In this lecture learn to divide and conquer by separating answers into groups reducing all test taking logic to a 50/50 answer.

This lecture focuses on questions where three of the answers are similar with only one that doesn't fit into the pattern. Focusing on the "Sesame Street answer" can dramatically cut down on eliminating answers and improving scores.

This lecture addresses demonstrates how to compare possible answers to the given scenario to resolve particularly difficult questions where even elimination of multiple answers leaves several plausible choices.

This lecture explores questions that require a total guess and strategies to maximize the chances of making a total gamble pay off.

This lecture goes over how to handle questions that require multiple answers.
