MCSA/MCSE Exam 70-290: Managing and Maintaining a Windows Server 2003 Environment Study Guideby Chad Todd, Chris Peiris and Jeffery Martin


Just curious if anyone else has used this book? Having used some other e learning facilities, I was quite shocked when I picked up this little number. My local E facilities assured me their course contained everything needed to pass. I now know adfter reading this book and others this is complete BS! I was gaurenteed to fail if I was just to go off the e course.

Anyway, this book seems to contain alot of info that wont be covered in 290 but is handy to learn anyway.

Interested in others takes on it? I plan to find another learnign source to complement it and then combine that with the transcnder tests...

I'd be careful when saying that, there's a lot covered on the exam. Have a look at the "Skills Being Measured" page for the 70-290 exam and compare it with what's in the book. In most cases, you need more than one resource to pass, as most study guides don't cover everything or they don't cover everything in as much detail as people would like.
