A review of the reviews
19 Jun 2004
Format:Paperback
Interesting that so far all the reviews for this 800-page study guide were posted within a month after the book's publication date; all give glowing, five-star endorsements; and all are written in a very similar writing style.

Examples galore and excellent quick source
29 Sep 2003
Format:Paperback
Just what I needed at a smart price. Hey when you have 7 exams and need to buy 7 books you know what I'm talking about - a good book without feeling your heart drop while your soul gets sucked out of you and the other side of your brain is saying your wasting $$$. This fit the ticket, fit the budget and gave me exactly what I needed and it was a darn good book at that.
Anyhow, I just love browsing tech. books at stores, especially those on certification before taking an exam and one that can carry itself even after the cert exam as a quick guide. Passed the criteria again.
It offered a quick read to what you need, plenty of exam tips, notes and scenarios for the exam. One feature I really enjoyed - snapshots and diagrams. I just bypass books that don't have them. Again, provided what I needed especially when reading while on the plane or off site. Good step-by-step examples.
Another feature I liked were the answers on the back to the practice tests and fast facts. I've run across books that either didn't have them or placed them shortly after the test. This book forces me to think and not get too lazy.
In summary: It's concise, non-confusing, and a very well designed book to get you.

Concice and comprehensive coverage
27 Sep 2003
Format:Paperback
Just getting started on the MCSE on Windows Server 2003 track, there was some question as to what book to choose from. This was settled for me by having this concise guide readily available. The authoring team has done a great job of taking all of the objectives and breaking them down in to manageable chunks that are then easily presented and easily understood.
I opted to skip the 70-290 exam for now and start out with this exam as my first ever--and I think it was a good move. This book, combined with my test lab, was all it took to get that pass. The end of chapter questions and the practice exam at the end of the book were good checkpoints for me to verfiy my mastering of the facts. Although the questions were not always perfectly similar to those on the actual exam, they were relevant and important. I especially liked the Fast Facts, which provided me with a quick review in the hours before my exam--this seems to be something that is missing from a lot of study guides I had seen previously.
I am glad I picked this guide (on pure instinct) and will continue to use the Que lineup for the rest of my MCSE 2003 exams. I did notice some (maybe 5 or 6) minor typographic and grammatical errors, but none that really made any importance. Overall, I would say this book is a sure fire winner that combined with experience should make your exam day and easy and happy one!
