Done it a month ago with this command so the answer is correct.

I agree with Jaido, it can also be run in the order you have listed. Not sure why MS would add a “drag and drop in order” question like this which allows 2 diff answers. Guess you should opt for the suggested order in the answer.

There is a problem with this question
Below order will work
ntdsutil
activate instance ntds
snapshot
create

But this order will do the trick too
ntdsutil
snapshot
activate instance ntds
create

But in the exam I stay to the second because of the technet description of how to do this. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753609(v=WS.10).aspx
