    I found that the MS Press book was fine, so long as you:

    - work your way through it

    - fail the exam once

    - find out from these boards an elsewhere about all the errors in it (e.g. moving servers between administration groups)

    - then work your way through it again.

    It then becomes perfectly clear.

    I would recommend the SYBEX book. I studied Exchange because I wanted to learn something new from scratch.

    I used SYBEX, CBTs, lots of LAB work and passed on the first go.

    Try and lab out as much as poss icon_study.gif

    +1 sybex


    i think it worked well. i didnt do as much labbing as some, but I have also done lots of exchange stuff. ymmv.

    fwiw, i thought this test was the quintessential microsoft 'easy test/hard questions'.

    good luck!

    Working with the Sybex book right now, it's alrght.

    But I am being forced to use Testout to supplment it as it doesn't cover a lot of the hands on stuff you need to do. I would say it's lab section has a lot to be desired. I heard the Microsoft press is better for labs, but I can't confirm that.
