The book have a lot of exercises and be careful with the answers. Check it with Books on line. I approve the exam with this material and the Course 756 System administration for MS SQL Server 6.5. Overall a concise, good book.

This book really missed the mark as a study guide. A good percentage of the information is inaccurate and conflicting. I found it next to impossible to navigate test questions for material not even covered. Once I encountered errors that just made it worse. I found myself double checking with the Microsoft's Books Online to resolve these issues. By the time I printed Books Online topics as a backup, I might as well have not had the book at all!

3.0 out of 5 stars More bug-ridden than the software, August 3, 1998

While it's nice to have 500 practice questions, they can be useless if the answers are wrong (about 10% are). The authors needed to use more care in preventing ambiguity in the questions (although the actual tests from Micro$oft tend to be a little vague themselves) and making sure the answers are actually answering their assigned questions. The price is right but be careful.
