The 111-056 exam — full title TS:MS.NET Framework 2.0 - Distributed Application Developm — is Microsoft's own certification test, and passing it awards the Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS): .NET Framework 2.0, Distributed Applications certification at the Specialist level. The certificate is valuable precisely because it is demanding: it proves to employers that your skills survived a vendor-built examination. It also serves as a stepping stone toward MCTS .NET Framework 2.0, MCP, MCPD: Enterprise Application Developer.

The passing score is 700 (scale 1–1000), and the official registration fee is $125 USD. Note that the fee pays for a single attempt — a retake is charged at full price again, which is the expensive way to discover weak spots. The cheaper discovery method is self-testing: drill 240 practice questions at PrepAwayPDF in timed mode until your scores clear the passing mark with room to spare, then register.
