What was it like? Thinking of taking this in a month or 2. It says “Ideal for those with 2 or more years experience.” but the list of items tested seems quite basic (“Query data using Select statements”, “Create and Amend Tables/Views/Procedures”), not quite sure 2 years worth of experience would really need to be required for this?
All I read to pass this exam was Programmability Enhancements (Database Engine).
So if you have experience working with SQL 2008 or SQL 2008 R2 you should be just fine reading from the above link and consider brushing up your overall basic T-SQL skills to feel more confident.
If I could do it, there is no reason you can’t do it.
All the best, and let me know how it goes.
