Summary: Passed the MOS Expert Exam-Highly recommended
Review: I also agree-unless you're a study maniac, this cant be covered in one weekend. Before I started this book, I took an Excel Intermediate class, and that just started my appetite. Purchased the book, studied it for a few weeks, then after I was able to do the practice exams with no problems, I felt I was ready for the exam. I passed on the first try, and just about everything that is in the book, was on the exam...except for adding a button on the toolbar for a macro.
I also purchased the Word Step-by-Step, but I'm going back to the Word version of this book.

Summary: Good - but not in one weekend
Review: This book proves to be the best virtually all-encompassing prep tool for The Excel 2002 Microsoft Office Specialist Exam. That being said, you won't do it in one weekend - as the hype fallaciously proclaims - unless you're one of two things - an Excel freak or ... settling for the Core cert.I just passed the Expert Exam today. 45 minutes for 14 multi-part questions. You need a 780/1000. It's no cakewalk, so to speak, but then again, I am an Expert. The only areas on the Expert exam where you need to get more info that aren't covered in this book are: customizing macros, subtotal options within PivotTables, and custom number formats. This book has a practice file from the CD_ROM for each and every lesson in this book - very helpful. It's very well written and comes highly recommended - I mean, we're talking Barabara Clemens.
