Hi All,
I just wanted to let you all know that if you are doing any of the 2 exams: 70-647 and 70-649 - DO NOT SOLELY RELY on Microsoft book - there is hardly 30-45% of the exam material (the one that you will see on your exam).

I still cannot believe I have passed.

All the best to everybody - on to CCNA now.

2011: CCNA (70%), CCNA: Security, MCITP:Messaging

    Congrats. I need 649 for upgrade from MCSE but am ending up doing it one test at a time due to lack of decent up-to-date training materials. Only another week or so and I'll be giving 642 a try then moving to 643 and done.

    I am not able to recommend any other. I used CBT and MsPress and during exam felt cheated by MsPress book - not even 40% were included in it (the book). I would suggest using an extra book for it.

    I suggest using Sybex book for any MS exam (in addition to MS book)
