Product Description

Product Description

The Fast Track series already covers the four core exams (everyone must take these) and two of the most popular electives, passing all of which earn the candidate MCSE status. SQL Server 7 Administration adds to the growing list of popular electives offered in Fast Track format. Each book has two parts: Part I gets you ready for the test FAST, covering just what you need to know to pass the test, assuming you have a working knowledge of the technology to begin with. Part II takes you through the test and into the real-world use of the technology, with chapters on: Fast Facts Review Section: Digest of each chapter-ending 'What's Important-to-Know' section from Part I; Hotlists of Exam-Critical Concepts; Sample Test Questions: One question per key point made in the book; Insider's Spin: What Microsoft doesn't necessarily want you to know; Did You Know?: Invaluable real-world applications for the technology covered in the exam, taken from the author's training and consulting files.

5.0 out of 5 stars Concentrated, focussed information aimed at passing exams., 15 Dec 2000
By Andy Mac "anykey" (Huddersfield, England) - See all my reviews
This is not a Microsoft authorised learning material - the advantage is that they don't have to conform to the Microsoft rules of 50% of all possible material covered. What you have here is concentrated information on passing SQL Server 7 MCSE 70-028 exam and it is done very well. Contains very useful study aids such as the objective reviews, fact reviews, insider's information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Already familiar with SQL, then this book is AWESOME!, 26 Jul 1999
By A Customer
If you are familiar with database administration for SQL 6.5, then this book hits the facts hard and fast for passing the Exam for SQL 7.0 Administration. This is an extremely hard exam...even for Microsoft. This exam is not for the "faint of heart".

The SQL 7.0 Administration exam is designed for individuals that have a lot of industry experience and a good working knowledge of the product. The book does an excellent job at preparing one for the exam.

Some of the supposed errors that other people have "found" are in fact really not errors. One of the errors about hardware requirements was actually an oversight on Microsoft's part. I believe if you check their site, you will find that the requirements match up pretty well. Some of the other comments indicate that the readers are not overly familiar with SQL.

Great book, two thumbs up for the authors for concisely presenting useful information for experienced users. New Riders has always been a favorite publisher of mine and I will continue to use them.

By A Customer
Working with SQL 7.0 and this made the test easiest enough to pass, but make sure you know how to use the product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good, despite the minor errors
I agree that there are a few obvious errors and that it wasn't proofread as well as it should have been; considering that this is New Riders IS surprising. Read more
