1.0 out of 5 stars It's deseption ! ! !, November 5, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: McSe: SQL Server 6.5 Administration Study Guide (Hardcover)

I'm angry and frustrated. Don't waste you time and money. I have not passed the exam because of Sybex book. This material covers less than 5% of the exam.

1.0 out of 5 stars don't waste your money, November 2, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: McSe: SQL Server 6.5 Administration Study Guide (Hardcover)

I have 5 Sybex books related to MCSE certification which I received as part of my classes. I have passed the core four exams using Exam Cram and Transcenders and I want to warn people not to use Sybex material. It is trash. The books are full of errors and terminally crammed with useless verbosity.

2.0 out of 5 stars A disapointment, July 7, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: McSe: SQL Server 6.5 Administration Study Guide (Hardcover)

The bottom line is this book does not fully prepare you for the SQL Administration exam. I was shocked to be taking the exam and encounter material that I had simply not been introduced to. Beyond this it was written well enough, but its failure to adequately prepare the reader for the exam is a major shortcoming.

Used in conjunction with other resources, such as New Riders TestPrep or the Exam Cram book when released, it should be useful.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not to be used as a sole resource.
I found the book useful as a beginning introduction to SQL admin. However, the questions and exercises did not prepare me for the exam. Read more
