Word of warning to those of you who have never sat one of these Microsoft exams before though. If you don't do it exactly as the system wants you too, it affects your exam score. There are obviously more than one way to skin a cat, especially in an area like this. What I am saying is just don't expect to be able to blag the exam, even if you are very confident with HTML5/CSS3 etc - take a bit of time to actually go through the Microsoft materials. Trust me, take it from someone who has sat these exams before.

Definitely take the time to go through the Microsoft materials though.
Just a couple of questions - can this be done online or does it need to be done at a test center? The centers are all miles away from me - so hoping it can be done online. Can anyone shed some more light onto how this works? Thanks
I don't drive so donno if there is anywhere close to me
