Prepation time for MCSD .net exam.

I am planning to give MCSD .net.Can somebody help me in
telling me how much time will it and should it take? Can
i give exam with 2-3 weeks of preparation? Also does
anybody knows how good are these crash courses. Are they
worth taking?

I have worked as a Web Developer using commerce server
and classic ASP, but unfortunately i have been out of
work for some time. I wanna finish my MCSD asap so that i
can get a job as .Net developer.

Currently, I am preparing for Exam 70-316.

Hey, Commerce Server is cool to work with. That's great experience under
your belt.

Do you have access to Commerce Server 2002? If you do, you can use the .NET
Solution Site, Retail 2002. It's a great way to learn .NET by seeing how it
interacts with the COM Commerce Server components.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...s_ag_intro.asp

Warning: it's half written in VB.NET and half in C#. You're going to learn
both languages (not that hard) when you play with it. Maybe then you can
choose what language track you want to pursue.

Since you have the money to consider classes, perhaps you should use MSDN
and Transcender instead to study for your exams. This cheaper and
strategically effective for passing the exams.

BTW - take the Commerce Server exam as the MCSD.NET elective. I found it
fairly easy because of my experience with the Site Server/Commerce Server
products.

Good luck,

Hi Shweta,

Nice to know that you are planning for a skill upgrade
You should refer to the official curriculum and also
MSDN. You really don't need to join a course to
learn .NET. MS has taken a lot of effort to make .NET a
piece of cake and a lot simpler than earlier COM based
technologies.

If you need anyhelp, I can be contacted at


You can also refer to www.gotdotnet.com This is one great
site and there are many others.
