Customer Reviews

Comprehensive and complete.

Not only does this kit provide excellent study material, but it will also prove to be an invaluable reference afterward. For people (like me) who cannot afford the instructor-led courses, this kit provides the necessary training to not only pass the exams, but also to be a good network engineer. Use one of the study guides just before the exam, but use this kit to gain a thorough understanding of the material first.

once again microsoft, does it again?

Once again, I passed 2 out of the 4 of these test, using the mspress books, and some help from the transcender folks. The reading is tedious, but once through it, the cool things that you learn far outweigh any hard feelings experienced throughout the reading, I mean, think about it, this is the straight shot from the horse's mouth, you can't get any closer. I would also recommend windows nt tcp/ip network adminstration, it goes perfectly with the networking essentials,

This is what you need to pass the tests.

I'm confused as to why so many people are criticizing all the Microsoft Press Books. I have taken the 4 Core exams so far and have passed all of them on the first try. Don't blame the books people. There might be something else at work here. Yes the books are dry but how exciting can you make an operating system? The excess information that you may or may not need for the exams is not useless. Who know which questions you will be asked. All of the tests are different. It just makes you better prepared and may eliminate some of the paper MCSE's out there which seem to be flooding the market.

Must have for any person trying to become an MCSE.

This package of training kits contains almost everything needed to pass the MCSE core tests on the first try. Absent from the training kits are good sample test questions, but those can be obtained from all of the demos other training providers such as PEP Tests and Transcender offer. Worth the money.

An excellent reference and study guide.

Not only will this training kit help to prepare you for the test, it will make an excellent reference when you are done with the core courses. The kit comes with 120 day evaluation copies of server and workstation. You also get simulations and worthwhile videos. If you use these books correctly and do all the labs, you are a shoe in to pass the tests. They do contain alot of info that is not on the tests but do you want to study only for the test, or be able to do your job well? Other books can focus you in for the tests but these books will make you an excellent and viable MCSE.
