Hi,

I have passed my NT4 MCSE and Windows 2000 MCSE and I think it's time to
take these two exams and go for the 2003 MCSE.

I notice there's sets of books on Amazon and I'd like some advice on which
ones are the best? I've used Exam Cram before and always found them very
good. But I also believe the "Dan DiNicolo" on Microsoft official press are
good too?

Any suggestions?

I didn't use any books as there were none when I wrote the exams. Grab the
"Skills being measured" section from the MS site
(http://www.microsoft.com/learning/ex...296.asp#SKILLS) and grab some
white papers to explain, then practice for a week and go write the tests...

Along with Neil's reference, go to
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/d...us/default.asp
as well, it's a fantastic source.

I'm a fan of the Exam Cram 2's, good choice. My MCSA upgrade is out of the
way (Hopefully upgraded to MCSE by Christmas). I have also found the
Microsoft Press book particularly useful especially for the senarios. ISBN:
0-7356-1971-9 I think it is about £40 or $70.

Good luck with the upgrade
