Preparing to tackle the MCSA

So I'm getting ready to prepare these exams in order to obtain the MCSA: Windows 10 cert. I'm hoping to pass both the 70-687 and 70-688 before they expire and then eventually take the 70-697.
Already have MCSA 70-687 Cert Guide: Configure Microsoft Windows 8.1 by Don Poulton on order to start things off. Any other recommendations as a way to prepare for this and the other exams?
I'd like to watch the CBT Nuggets videos but they're a bit too expensive for me.

You have to look at the objectives for the exam on the MS site.
