Results of the PPS Beta Exam

So this past Friday I received the results of my PPS (PerformancePoint Server) beta exam in the mail. I was quite surprised to find that I only missed passing it by 43 points. What surprised me about this was that I took the beta exam back in early November before I had taken any training or really used the product in any depth. Before I took the exam, the only things I had studied were the training pages on the Microsoft site. Now that I have take a training course and worked with the product more closely, I feel confident in my ability to pass the exam when it is released. No news yet as to when that will be but I will keep everyone posted.
