I have a free voucher for Microsoft's 98-366 network exam,expires 5 days. Can I pass?

Mr.Ritz

Hello, I just got done taking a networking class on campus and they told us a few weeks ago they were giving us all free vouchers for this exam with the catch having to take it in the next 5 days. I am a linux guy myself and I kinda zoned out on the windows 2003 server stuff a bit. I didn't plan on taking this exam but I figure it would be a waste to let a free voucher go so is there any kindle books that would help me cram for this in the next 5 days?

Mr.Ritz

Thinking about getting this book..


Amazon.com: Microsoft Windows Networking Essentials (9781118016855): Darril Gibson: Books


Anyone give me an idea how hard this test is and what I need to focus on?

Looking over the "skills measured" description on the certification, it looks to be basically be a subset of the skills measured in Net+. Net+ is a relatively easy entry-level cert, so I'm inclined to say, yes, you can cram for and pass this exam within five days, if you put your mind to it.

Mr.Ritz

So I passed it and I didn't even read the book besides do the reviews over the course of 5 days. Is this cert worth anything? I would have not taken this if it was not free.

I hate to say this, but that cert isnt worth anything. It's just a "stepping stone" towards an MCTS certification. So maybe it gave you a grounding for the MCTS exams, but I doubt it'd give you any more than that. It doesnt give you a certification either.
