Mta 98-365

Hello everyone. Currently studying for the MTA Windows Server Administration Fundamentals. Ive been using the MVA videos, ITProTV videos and just recently purchased the book by Tom Carpenter. I haven't started reading yet though. Should these materials be enough to pass? I don't really have any experience working with a server OS if that helps. Thanks!

    Yes. Back when I took it I used Carpenter's book and CBT Nuggets. That was enough to pass. If they have practice exams those wouldn't hurt either but I wouldn't pay extra. The MTA exams I would compare to CompTIA levels when it comes to exams. If you have taken A+, N+, or S+ you will know what I am talking about.

    Agreed. If you have an ITProTV subscription you should use their two free Transcender tests you get each month since it's built into the subscription. A good combo of practice exams, good reading material and videos should allow you to knock this out on the first try.

    I stand corrected. I logged into ITProTV: MTA98-365 and sure enough- no Transcender exams. Thanks for the correction.

    Thank you all for the answers so far. I don't see any free practice exams beyond what I have in the Carpenter book, will that work? Also with reading and video watching do I need to lab for this exam? Just to be clear I know labbing is important I meant just for this particular exam

    Does anyone know if I need to lab for this exam?
