Default Will the MS press books enough to get MCSD.NET


Hi,

I bought all the books for MCSD.NEt.
Dev.Win.apps using VB.NEt and VS.net
Dev.WEb. apps using VB.net and VS.net
Dev.XML web services
Defining solution architectures for .NEt..

all are MS press books. Is it enough to give a test after
reading them..
do i need to go through the MSDN also before giving the
test.
I have 3 yrs.of exp. in VB..
I dont have any exp. in .NEt..
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
KP

No. The MS Press books are incomplete.

No experience in .NET? Why are you pursuing certification?

I have used these books and so far have passed 306 and 315. My advice is to do the labs (especially if you have no experience) and take the practice exams as often as possible until you are scoring above 90%. For the topics you don't quite understand after going through the book, try the help and its examples. The books for the most part should suffice.

315. My advice is to do the labs (especially if you have

I forgot. Copy the ebook locally and sell the physical
books back via Amazon.

Such an action would be illegal. When selling copyrighted material, you
cannot retain ANY part of the copyrighted material, including any including
electronic copies...
