4.0 out of 5 stars Good Book, April 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: 1001 McSe Tips (1001 Tips) (Paperback)

I enjoyed the test question format of the book, and the giving of explanations for the answers.

I did notice that the CD contains incorrect information, so it will keep me on my toes when reviewing those test questions.

4.0 out of 5 stars thorough and complete, a one-book preparation for certifying, October 19, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: 1001 McSe Tips (1001 Tips) (Paperback)

Written in an MCSE test format, this book will clue you in on what you need to know before taking your exams. Unlike the "du**y" guides, or the "unl##shed" series, this book is written in hard-core, get-ready-for-tricky-questions, Microsoft test style. It gives example questions and answers like you will see in the test. This is a no-holds-barred book that deserves your full attention if you are serious about certifying with Microsoft.

This is not an "easy read", but will prepare you for the complex and tricky questions on the MS Certs. It explains how to approach such tricky questions, and shows you hundreds of pages of examples. Every page is a must-read.

The authors should be commended on their attention to detail, and their commitment to providing the reader an unabashed look at what the certification tests hold in store for them.

I look forward to their next book - and hope they will share some of their tips in another format (ie., "Using", "Unleashed" or "Inside") so that we may get some quick info in addition to the thorough explanations.

4.0 out of 5 stars 1001 MCSE Tips is a great starting point!, October 20, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: 1001 McSe Tips (1001 Tips) (Paperback)

This book was written for those of you who know you want a career with the Microsoft product, but don't know just how to get started. It contains information on where to look for study help, how to find evaluation copies of server 4, what you need to be prepared to test, and much more. I wouldn't rely solely on this book to pass the core exams, but it is a great place to start.
