4.0 out of 5 stars
Happy with the book,
By
This review is from: 70-646, Package: Windows Server 2008 Administrator with Lab Manual (Microsoft Official Academic Course Series) (Paperback)
I'm a faculty member at a community college, and I've been using this textbook since it first came out. I've been pretty happy with it, and so have most of my students. At least half of them take the 70-646 Microsoft exam in place of my final exam, and their pass rate is over 90%. The first semester I used it, 17 out of 20 students took and passed the exam, first time. Keep in mind that the book is part of a track, and if this is the first Microsoft course and textbook you have taken, you will be over your head. My recommendation is to take a basic networking course first, one that covers the fundamentals of addressing, host name resolution, etc, followed by a Windows 7 course. At that point this course should be a little less baffling. If you finish the track, you will be amazed at how all of the courses build upon and complement each other.
No class is going to turn you into a Server Administrator; that comes with experience and sweat. This course provides you with some of the building blocks for that career.

The worst textbooks ever?,
This review is from: 70-646, Package: Windows Server 2008 Administrator with Lab Manual (Microsoft Official Academic Course Series) (Paperback)
Wiley's MOAC textbooks are truly inferior products. I have had to read three of them. They are full of contradictions and typos. Even when they are technically correct they are so poorly written it's difficult to follow. There is no flow from the general to the specific. In no way should these products be directed toward a 1st or 2nd semester IT student. In fact, they shouldn't be directed toward ANY student. They are an affront to trees and the students that shell out big bucks. If you have to read one of these books, I recommend that you profoundly scale back your expectations for learning. That's just the textbooks. The lab books are even more useless. Approximately one third of the server labs just will not work and I've heard most of the labs in AD don't work. Whatever you do, don't pay full price for these books!

Great books,

This review is from: 70-646, Package: Windows Server 2008 Administrator with Lab Manual (Microsoft Official Academic Course Series) (Paperback)
Okay it's a misnomer to view these books as simply paths to attain a legitimate Microsfot certifications. These books are graphically designed to convey all all the pertinent information to know how to navigate and manage the main features of using Windows Servers, whicd are the essential skill-based knowledge you need. If you want to study for the certification and get all the nunances an details then just study the cert prep books, but there's more to Microsoft than just knowing how to pass an exam, and these books are designed to teach you which is what you should be after first. These books are fantastic.
