Here is the complete mail that will be send out shortly to those who did a first try on one of those exams:

You recently participated in a beta for Windows Vista exams 71-621: Upgrading Your Microsoft Certified Desktop Support (MCDST) Certification to a Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP): Enterprise Support Technician and/or 71-622: PRO: Supporting and Troubleshooting Applications on a Microsoft Windows Vista Client for Enterprise Support Technicians . As you may know, we have had to make the decision to re-engineer these exams. As a result there will be a second beta for 71-621 and 71-622.

Why are we re-engineering the exams?

In the interest of producing a technically accurate exam and a consistent, meaningful credential, we made the difficult decision to re-engineer exams 70-621, 70-622, and 70-623 to include coverage of several topics that were errantly left out of the original exam Objective Domain (OD). As a result, we must re-run the betas and delay the release dates for these much anticipated exams.

We regret this inconvenience; we know many of you invested time and energy into preparing and have been looking forward to your results.

What this means to your score on 71-621 and/or 71-622.

Your first beta exams will be scored based on the results of the second beta (i.e. the final scoring model will be based on the re-engineered exams) and will be available in late May 2007. Because results from the first beta are dependent on the outcomes of the second, you will not have your results before the second beta takes place. You are not obligated to re-take the beta, but choosing to do so may increase your chances of a passing result on the final scoring model, which will include additional components.

* If you take the second beta, your first results will be dismissed; you will only be scored on your second result. See below for how to participate.

* If you do not take the second beta, you will receive a score for the exam you have already taken. If it is a passing score, you will receive credit for the exam on your transcript. No action required.

* In either case, Microsoft will provide you with an exam voucher should you need or choose to re-take the exam in its live form.

If you were registered for 71-623, you will receive an exclusive invitation to re-register on approximately March 15.
