 passed with ease July 14, 2003
I used this book with Transcender tests and felt very comfortable hitting that submit button (and yes, I passed). Simmon's writing is pleasant to read and easy to understand. The the practice CD seemed to have a few errors, but the book itself is great.
 A good place to start but not a 1-stop shop October 17, 2002
I found this book to be a very good place to start but DON'T rely on this book alone to get you through the exam! There are several areas (e.g. Active Directory & Subnetting) that were not covered in the book yet these appear on the exam and others that are not covered in anything like enough detail. Also, while the test questions on the CD are a good way of checking your knowledge of the topics covered in the book they don't really prepare you for the questions you will meet on the exam. For this, I recommend using 3rd party (e.g. selftestsoftware etc.).
 Rehash of Dummies 70-210 January 18, 2002

I had great luck with the "Dummies" book for exam 70-210, but this was a disappointment. Coverage of DNS and DHCP was marginal and IP section ommited some important subnetting instruction, i.e. describing subnet masking. I used the Self Test Software exam simulation (which was fairly accurate) and it had ip issues in it that weren't covered in the book. The 70-210 "Dummies" book gave a good background which helped. I got 800 on the 210 test and 700 on the 215 with the same studying.
Dissapointed about the cd July 1, 2001
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
When I start preparing for a MS exam I always buy a Dummies book. I used the For Dummies when I did the 70-098 and 70-210 exams so I bought this title without looking at the reviews.This book by itself would not have given me a passing score. There is nothing about Active Directory or Group policies in this book and I had quite a few questions on the exam about these subjects. The book did give me some good info and is good to start of with. Biggest dissapointment is the cd. Almost an exact copy of the 70-210 cd with a few extra questions. It hardly had questions related on the book. I just bought 70-216 and 70-217 from the dummies series because I think they deliver superb reading material.
 Great Resource but obsolete test database February 2, 2001
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book is a great reference for anyone wanting a quick and to the point learning reference guide. However, it is useless for the actual Microsoft Server test because the key focus and format of the questions in the book and the CDROM do NOT match the questions on the Microsoft exam. I failed the actual exam (miserably) after routinely scoring very high on this books assessment testing database. Do not trust the testing material in this book.
