Hi Sandy,

Congratulations! That is great news, I am so happy for you!

I am also envious, because this week-end I have to study for three exams
that I have to take in the next two weeks, and I am going nuts! However with
one more cert to add to my signature I'll then take some time off until it is
time to study for MCTS and MCITP :)

Congratulations on passing your MCDST exam Sandy! My name is Neko(female)
and currently I do not have any certifications, but I do have a degree in
CIS. I would like to start studying for the MCDST so do you mind telling me
the books, CDs, e-learning tools that you used to help you pass. My job
depends on this. I would like to go to the source instead of trying
something that might not work. I am new in this microsoft community as well.
I'll be seeing you around the MS community.

Thank you and again Congratulations!!!!

Hi Neko,

Welcome to the community. As I have already answered this question I will
repost it here:

I went out and bought the MS Press books, went through the Readiness Review
Suites (which I love!) and passed the two exams yesterday and today.

The books you want are:

MCDST Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-272): Supporting Users and
Troubleshooting Desktop Applications on Microsoft® Windows® XP, Second
Edition (http://www.microsoft.com/MSPress/books/8771.asp)

and

MCDST Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-271): Supporting Users and
Troubleshooting a Microsoft® Windows® XP Operating System, Second Edition
(http://www.microsoft.com/MSPress/books/8796.asp)

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

The source I used that was of the most value was MCDST Self-Paced Training
kit Exam 70-271. I also used Transcender for the test questions. I found the
Transcender questions easier then the questions included with the MCDST self
paced training kit, but I needed some variety :-). I had bought the
Microsoft elearning course 2261, but found it to be very pricey with little
depth, not nearly enough to pass the test, or really learn anything. I also
spent a fair amount of time in the knowledge base and researching/learning on
various tech sites. Again, the best money spent was the $60 on the MCDST
Self-Paced Training kit.

RE: 70-271 PASSED
 

I am currently studing for this cert and on the practice tests from the CD i
am having trouble with the type of questions that you have to move from the
right box to the left and put them in order. i have no issues with the rest
just these type, if you can remeber, were there any of these types of
questions on the test?
