MCDST 70-271 &70-272 Exam Cram 2 Bundle (Supporting Users and Troubleshooting a Windows Xp Operating System)

Rating:
Summary: Good work for hte new exams.
Review: Microsoft's release of the MCDST Certification has you taking 2 exams, 70-271 and 70-272.What you need is something to use as a final study tool and this set is just the right answer. What you have here is a fairly complete breakdown of the exam objective condensed for easy reading.

No technical manual is usually fun to read since the material is technical, however these 2 books are easy to follow and the reading level is set for the experience technician. Understand that manual(s) is a scaled down finer points set of text, and you will need other resources in order to pass the exam.

The 70-271 book was a little more informative and I found it had information that lapped over to the other exam. As with other EC2 manuals, there is the Cram sheet in front and the cd in the back. This set uses the Measure UP test engine, which could use a few updates and more questions as well as a way to up[date on the web.

Fixing the test engine is a minor draw back and this book should help in the final prep. Overall well put together and researched
