Customer Reviews

Forget the book... buy it for the CD!

The CD-ROM that comes with this book is amazing. It has over 700 questions and several ways to take sample tests. If you get a passing score on these you will pass the real exam. If you don't, go back to your other study guides and come back to the CD-ROM and try again. The book layout was disappointing, I was looking for sample tests and the book is arranged by subject matter. Many of the questions were too easy when you knew the category (many times the category was the answer). I threw it aside and went to the CD-ROM after about 20 minutes.

Passed with a score of 96%

Most of the question on the exam were either verbatim or very similar to the questions in this book. I recommend using this as a supplement to a study guide (I didn't really use my Exam Cram2 study guide; I used Microsoft's, instead) and testing your knowledge. Once you score near 100% on these questions, then you're ready to take the exam. And you WILL pass!

CD alone is worth the cost ...

The book in itself is Ok, but the CD has practice questions from MeasureUp and they want $89 for their practice exam... So for less that $20 for the book, you get $89 worth of practice exam... Good deal.I did pass the exam with 860/900 and this book (mainly the CD) helped the most (and got the most bang for the buck)...While the engine is not as robust as PrepLogic (which is written in .Net and constantly crashed between tests) or the Boson practice tests... the questions are real close to the exam. There were no perfect books for the test, but this was by far the best money I spent towards studying, which was over $150 in books, practice tests and crams... Your mileage may vary.
