From the Back Cover

Most other certification books seek Microsoft approval, meaning they must include at least 50% tutorial material, and cover every objective for every exam, no matter how frivolous or relevant to the actual exam. MCSE Fast Tracks break away from that mold by focusing only on what you really need to know. Targeted to those who know the technology but who don't yet have the certification, MCSE Fast Track: Visual Basic 6, Exam 70-175 features only what the more-experienced candidate needs to know to pass the exams. Each book in the Fast Track series has two parts. Part One contains all the information you need to know about the exam. It uses an easy-to-follow approach to drills you on exam-critical information. Part Two features classroom-tested, instructor-proven review strategies, including Fast Fasts, Hotlists of Exam-Critical Concepts, Sample Test Questions, and the Insider's Spin. MCSE Fast Tracks are your accelerated path to MCSE success.

2.0 out of 5 stars blah blah blah, January 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: MCSD Fast Track: Visual Basic 6, Exam: 70-175 (Paperback)

Most of this book is the same as the MCSD Fast Track VB 6 book for the other exam (70-176). There is some useful information, but most of it is a cursory look.

These two books should have been put together into one book and made better. If you buy both, you've been had.

3.0 out of 5 stars The book is a good resource, but not enough, May 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: MCSD Fast Track: Visual Basic 6, Exam: 70-175 (Paperback)

The book should only be used as an additional review material for the exam. It certainly does not compare to "Exam Cram: VB6 Distributed", but it has some good chapters that are applicable for the exam. Some areas were not covered in enough detail nor they have been explained clearly (i.e MTS security).

3.0 out of 5 stars OK but not enough, March 31, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: MCSD Fast Track: Visual Basic 6, Exam: 70-175 (Paperback)

This book works fine for the test but not enough to cover the whole test and also missed some very important part of it

2.0 out of 5 stars redundent information
One book for 70-176 is worth 155 FF, one book for 70-175 is worth 155 FF, the two books together aren't worth 310 FF.

These two books are almost the same.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Roadmap/Guide for 70-175 Preparation!
As with the 70-176 book, I used this one to pass 70-175. It was quite helpful, although not as in-depth in some areas as 70-176 was. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Not too bad if you already have a good knowledge base in VB.
