Taking 218

On my course to MCSE 2000 I'm thinking I may sit 70-218 without studying a book specifically for the exam after doing 70-217 as the list of topics covered seem to be a bundle of whats actually covered in 70-215,216 & 217 (and as I have 70-210 already I wont need to study another book to get ready).

Have I got the right impression or are there other areas covered which you actually need to study for??

I believe 218 also covers Terminal server and IIS which are not covered very much in the other exams.

I missed the exam last time, I got to finally sit the exam today, didn't bother studying, passed with 902. the exam was a mashup of 210,215,216,217.
210 as far as dealing with h/w / driver problems
215/217 as far as troubleshooting GPO's
216 TCP/IP & Routing
had a couple of questions on IIS & TS.
Thanks to the brain bashing of R&RAS on 216 I managed to pass that section with a 100%
Got my 70-219 retake exam next week, then 220 & 221 in the Jan.
Atleast I got the MCSA before christmas, if it all goes **** up I'll try to pass 70-292 & call it quits.

yeah, I've booked all my exams with a 2nd shot voucher,If I fail 70-220 & 221 the 2nd time round I will just go for the MCSA 2003 upgrade (70-292)

Well, I didn't have the balls to sit any exams before christmas, passed 70-221 today with 760, got 220 & 219-retake at the end of the month.
I was really confused about whether I was sitting a M$ exam or a AS/400 one, all my scenarios where about integration & migration from SNA!?
