The boot camps and study centres can cost heaps, I've used them in London and found that I got better results building my own lab and doing self-study. Things like CBT Nuggets, TestOut and the MS press books have step by step labs that will teach you what you need. You might find these resources and forums like this one are all you need.

As you've limited server experience this might be the best bet to get you confidence up. The votes out on which of the server exams is the best to go for first. I did the 70-640 but a lot say the 70-642 is easier. I should know for myself in a few days as I'm sitting the 70-642 on Tuesday. For study tips, get you own space to study in, away from distractions. MS stuff is boring to read and I find I drift off. Spend a lot of time on the labs and build your servers over and over again. If you work in IT try and get some real world projects working on servers. The MS press books are a great base. Look on Trademe of copies on sale, or Amazon. They’re hard to find NZ bookshops and cost a mint. Try and get ones with test exams as they help you guide where you’re at.
