Has anyone heard of MCDST bootcamp. They are offering it here in my location
and I've heard they try to cram as much as possible in a weeks time in order
to pass the test. If anyone has any inputs on this, please let me know. I'm
not sure if I want to sign up or not yet. I'm not sure what it really is.
I've asked folks here and many don't know much about it either.

Bootcamps are designed to do just that; cram. They were created to get
you in /certified/ and out in the smallest amount of time possible. The
problem with this is that you are working strictly on memorization of
key terms and talking points. Bootcamps have there place however. I find
them extremely useful for someone already certified and might be looking
for an upgrade (i.e. Certified with experience in Windows 2000 and
looking to upgrade to Windows 2003). I do not recommend them for
individuals who are just starting out and have no experience with the
subject they want to certify on. Proceed with caution if you fall into
this category.
