Summary: You Can't Go Wrong With This Guide
Review: I used this guide after briefly referring to a third-party manual and scored 952/1000 on the exam--three days before, I'd never even used PowerPoint. Some people think study guides should be as comprehensive as a manual but the truth about the MOUS exams is that, most of the time, the more advanced knowledge you have, the more likely it is that you'll get tripped up interpreting the tasks. Klippert provides an excellent, easy to read and refer to guide that tells you exactly what you need to know. The accompanying CD is brilliant with practice documents for everything, including finished solutions so that you can check your work. What this guide has that most others lack is focus--which is all you need to pass the exam.

Summary: Excellent
Review: If you are an average or above average Microsoft user and want to pass this exam -- this is the book for you! This book gives a good overview of PowerPoint skills and has good review tests at the end of each chapter. I only use PowerPoint occasionally but had no problem scoring a 952 out of 1000 on the exam. I also learned a great deal about the program that will help me on future presentations.This book does not cover basic Microsoft skills. So if you don't know how to cut and paste or copy and save files (minimum skills), want to learn more about PowerPoint AND pass the test, I would suggest a more detailed book.

Summary: Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 Microsoft Office User Specialists
Review: This book is excellent, here's the story, I went to certiport.com and bought their training CD, which was a total disappointment, cause when I took the test I didn't pass. I then went to Amazon and searched for Mous prep material, I found Doug Kilpperts book and it was excellent!! You really can't fail if you review his book!! You cant!!! I reviewed his book and took the test i got 921. I personally don't think there is a better product out there!!

Summary: Truly a Cheat Sheet
Review: This book, as the name implies, is a cheat sheet. If you read this book, and you are able to successfully complete the test at the end of each chapter, you should have no problem passing the actual exam. The book is easy to read, and very informative. In addition to providing you with the task you need to know to pass the exam, this book also gives tips, and shortcuts to make maneuvering through the program a bit easier. There are however a few typo's, but not to the point of making the material unusable. I read the book, I took the exam, and now I am PowerPoint 2000 MOUS certified.

Summary: Excellent book for MOUS exam
Review: This is a great book for stictly passing the MOUS exam if you already have basic knowledge of PowerPoint. This book is written more like a practice test and should be used with a more in-depth book to study for the exam if your starting from scratch. But if all you want to do is pass the exam, this book is for you. The end of chapter review questions and CD-ROM exercises are very similar to the real exam. I ended up getting a 984 on my exam practicing with this book alone. But once again, I would only suggest this book to people who are already familiar with PowerPoint.

Summary: Great Book for MOUS exam
Review: This is an excellent book if you want to strictly pass the PowerPoint 2000 MOUS exam. If you have basic knowledge of PowerPoint and want something similar to a practice test, this is the book for you. I would recommend using this book as a supplement with more in-depth books to pass the exam. The end of chapter practice questions on the CD-ROM are very similar to the real test. I ended up scoring a 984 on my exam practicing with this book.
