Customer Reviews

I passed the test...

I bought this book the day before I took the exam because I was struggling with the measure up tests. I read through the book in one day and passed the exam the next day.I was disappointed that the exam questions on the CD were the same as in the book. I was hoping there would be a different set of questions.I recommend this book if you're just looking to pass the exam and also have access to the course material. It will help reinforce what I learned in the course material in an exam-type way.

Great value for prep material!!

Questions cover, with excellent difficulty, all areas of exam 70-229. These are the style of questions all Microsoft exams should contain to maintain the credibility of their certifications. This review is a good heads up on how Microsoft is changing their exams to cover hands on work experience versus fact regurgitation. Very handy sample Exam on CD with Questions randomly generated from the Readiness Reveiw. A better publication than the 70-229 Study Kit.

Good Preparation Material for the Money

For those folks already familiar with SQL Server, this book will fill-in any obvious knowledge gaps when preparing for the exam. It's like the related MSCE Training Kits in that it covers all the required topics, but with less detailed discussions and lab practices. It also costs less and demands less study time to complete. If you don't know SQL Server and T-SQL quite well this book will not help you pass the 70-229 exam. For example, while the included practice test will get you in the right mind set it does not drill you nearly enough on how to write sound stored procedures, triggers, and cursors.
