MCSD - Practice Exams Experience

Default Practice Exams Experience


Hello Everyone!

I'm beginning my journey into becoming an MCSD and would like to get advice
from everyone which practice exam software(like transcender) and books worked
best for you to assist you in passing the MCSD exams(I know that knowledge
and particularly, experience, is very important to pass these tests).

I know I could do my own research and find these practice exams and books.
But I wanted everyone's opinion regardless of experience and learning style.

I'm already an MCP in MS Access 97 Database Design and Development(yea,yea
its old) and have used transcender in the past, which worked great for me.
But that was years ago. I don't know which practice exam software and books
to get now.

Again, I can do my own research on the books, but just because a book says
it can help you on an exam in the front cover doesn't mean that the subject
matter is clearly explained(i got a book from microsoft press on c# and
ado.net which, sorry to say, SUCKED BIG TIME and wasted $49.99).

So on that note, if you could please share your experience with a particular
book and practice exam for the each core test, I would be greatly
appreciative.

Thanks!

For an MCP there are probably 1,500 to 2,500 depending
upon books, the course, and if you print out any
LEGITIMATE practice tests. That's a at least a
tree's worth right there.

Oww ! Don't tell me ! I'll miss the times we used to climb that ol'
Oak. And to think of what's gonna happen to it... relegated to being
"just another MCP paper".
