The Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) is the hottest certification in networking. "Networking Essentials" is one of the four Core Requirement exams for the MCSE. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bought this book as the only study guide for the networking essentials exam. I had no previous experience with networking and i am only 13! I scored an 800 the first time i took the test with only this book. If a 13 year-old can do it, you can too =)
Great Book

Read this the last few days before my Net Essentials exam and scored a 933. Breezed the test. It is an excellent last minute read to prepare for the exam. So much so, I am buying the series for each exam I take. The whole series rocks...
Buy this book, pass first time

I had passed Server and Workstation on my first try and then did not pass Net Ess. I thought what the hell??? 10 minutes after leaving the exam center I bought this book and highlighted all the questions I'd seen on the test in the book (or pretty close to). Took the test a week later and got 933 out of 1000. Bottom line: great book, read, understand, and you'll pass. Hats off to the authors and Sybex!
Great Studying Tool

I recommend this book highly for anyone taking the new adaptive tests. You could use this review book as a standalone study book. I did, and passed the test the first time. Although the new test is hard, this book offers a succinct explanation of difficult-to-understand networking concepts even to the beginner. Even though the information contained in this book is great, I found that the questions were not really germane to the actual test questions. The diagrams, on the other hand, are certainly taken right from the test, memorize them! They could save you 100 bucks. Good luck with the test--hated it.
