 Very Good Study GuideFeb 01, 2006
By iheartpotpie
I used this book to study for the test and passed it. The chapters are broken down great. The review questions are very good and almost exactly what you will find on the test.

Does the Trick!Mar 04, 2007
By F. Alan Garten
This is an excellent text for the 70-270 exam. I originally bought the Microsoft XP Professional training kit (written by Microsoft)and getting through it resembled eating an Elephant. I bought this study guide by Sybex and it was much easier to study and understand. It is written, organized, and presented very well. The questions and information on the CD mapped very well with the questions on the 70-270 exam. The nice part is that I passed the exam easily.

Solid Study MaterialDec 13, 2006
By Always Reading
This book is broken down nicely and tailored very well to the 70-270 exam. I have used numerous textbooks and study material in my quest to obtain my various certifications, but this one was definitely the best. It is well organized and easy to read. The chapter end questions are decent and resemble those on the actual exam.

Good book, but you'll need moreApr 19, 2007
By A reviewer
This book is very easy to read and covers all the main topics. I just passed the exam with a score of about 800. I found the questions on the actual test much more difficult than what are in the book and on the CD. I also used a Transcender software prep guide. Without Transcender, I would not have passed.
Maybe my test was harder than others. I've read that some people felt that the Transcender questions were more difficult than what was on the exam. But I found the exam questions just as difficult as the Transcender ones (if not more so).
Most people recommend this over the Microsoft Press book. I haven't used the other one, but I do think this one is a wise buy. It's just rather basic in many areas and the tests don't challenge you as much as you will need to pass the test.
Good luck!
