Editorial Reviews

From the Author

This Readiness Review is designed to prepare you for Microsoft’s certification exam 70-210. The book is structured around the objective domains that were developed for that exam. The objective domains categorize the primary topics covered in the exam. An objective domain contains a set of task-specific objectives, and an objective contains exam items that are related to that task.

Each chapter in the book maps to an objective domain and includes a description of the domain, a list of further readings, and a set of skills and suggested practices. The chapters are then broken into sections that map to the objectives. Each section includes a description of the objective and a set of practice exam items. The practice items include explanations for the correct and incorrect answers. The CD-ROM that accompanies this book contains a test engine that uses the practice exam items to simulate an online exam.

To prepare for the exam, read the entire book, complete the practice exam items and the skills and suggested practices, and review the further readings.

Before completing the final manuscript for this Readiness Review, I used the text and questions from this book to prepare for exam 70-210, which I passed. I hope you find this information as useful as I did in helping you prepare for and pass the exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have in your test prep toolbox, December 6, 2000
By 
K "K" (Sunriver, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MCSE Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional Readiness Review; Exam 70-210 (MCSE Readiness Review) (Paperback)
Everyone has a perferred/optimal style for learning- formal training, CBT's, Transcender exam and any one of the many review books out there. Regardless of your style- I think the Win2k Pro MS readiness review (70-210) is a cheap must have. It's ideal reading material right before taking the exam. I really appreciated the brief, to-the-point style Mr. Wilansky used to quiz and explain the 'exam' aspects of supporting Win2k pro. This is a readiness review- (i.e., test prep- after/in addition to studying) not a how to guide- and I think the book excels in this aspect.

This book does not provide the fundamental, core knowledge and experience needed to successfully operate as an experienced MCSE- but it is a good read prior to actually taking the exam. It also comes with sample test questions that are a lot cheaper than others. I really like that the book explains why the incorrect answers are deemed incorrect- very helpful. The verbage and 'real world examples' are great- much better than other books in its class.

5.0 out of 5 stars How to know you are ready for the exam, December 4, 2000
By 
John Freeman (Vienna, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: MCSE Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional Readiness Review; Exam 70-210 (MCSE Readiness Review) (Paperback)
This book, as its title advertises, provides a good final preparation for the exam. It is not, and was never intended to be, an encyclopaedic compendium of material on Windows 2000 Professional, nor is it a tutorial on the subject. Its usefulness occurs after you learn the material, and want to know whether you know enough to pass the exam.

People come to certification exams with varied preparation paths:

Some are learning the material for the first time. For these, a tutorial supplemented by reference material and hands-on exposure are preferred for gaining subject-matter knowledge.

Others, however, work daily with the product in question, and do not need a tutorial.

But eventually, both will ask the question, "Am I ready for the exam?" Both can use this book to find out. And both can use this book to learn where they need to review.

Successful performance under pressure (in sports, in music, on certification exams) comes from preparation. We are told to make the preparation setting similar to the performance setting, so that we perceive the variations we encounter during performance as fairly routine, to be taken in stride. This book puts you in an exam environment as many times as you want, and alerts you to what you need to focus on, so you can tune up for the real thing. If this is what you expect, it will serve you well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book - Makes 70-210 Test Seem Easy!, November 18, 2001

This review is from: MCSE Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional Readiness Review; Exam 70-210 (MCSE Readiness Review) (Paperback)
I scored an 820 on the test with only a few nights worth of studying. The sample questions in this book were very close to the actual test. It almost seemed too easy. I would definitely recommend this book and cd-rom to anyone who is looking to take the 70-210 test.
