I think I need to do some more labbing but all I have is a desktop setup with virtualbox but when I try to setup some vms to connect to yhe domain it would always bsod on me in the VM would restart and repaet so I was never able to fully do the pracrice labs in the hook whenever I needed additional servers or clients.

The tests that come with MS Press are usually not very easy so unless you simply repeated them 20 times until you memorized them I'm sure they should have some indication of your weak spots. Once you determine your weak spots you can know how to reinforce your knowledge and what to lab with. To be honest sometimes just looking around the MMC's for the different tools and making sure you know what all the tabs and settings are for is as good as you need for labbing. Assuming you are honest about what you do and don't know and look things up on technet often. You need to give someone a hint on your weaknesses before we can give better suggestions. Show us the breakdown on some of your early results from a full session on the MS Press exam simulation. That may help you study more efficiently.

If you haven't done one in a while or for some reason don't have access to the test history I would start by doing a full 50 question simulated exam and post your total score and results in each section. I used MCTS 70-640 Cert Guide book which I found to be very good that you may be interested in. With certificate services I would say it's definitely important tor review as most people have little experience or knowledge and this area and I found the 70-640 very heavy on them. I would recommend looking through all the articles on Technet on areas you are weak and as I mentioned you can supplement with MCTS 70-640 Cert Guide. If you have access to Safari books which I highly recommend, you can get it there. To be honest I didn't really lab with CS, FS, RMS but I did review the book chapters at least twice, watched videos and read technet on the topics.
