This book is good enough for the exam., 2006-07-22
Reviewer rating:
I used this book to help me study for the exam, however there are several confusing in Questions and answers section. For example, one of the questions was talking about Windows 98/ME while the answer were talkiing about Windows 95 in chapter one exam. Some of the questions will make you think twice before you can answer.

I have been working on computers for a number of years. Reading the chapters helps me to find some additional stuff that I did not know. I think it is useful for reading.

I also got myself Exam Cram 2 to help me verify some information that I think were missing a few in other book. I just use this book for backup.

Lately I have been ordering books from Sybex for my future MCSE exams which I was told they are the best. I read some and found them great. I did not bother to order some from QUE for my future exams.
Great Beginnings but Horrible Endings, 2004-02-22
Reviewer rating:
This book starts out great, but it seems that the author got a little tired towards the end of the book as the details starts dropping. By the time you reach the end of the book, it seems that you just read a summary of Windows XP, not a book that prepares you for the exam. My rate any MSCE type book using Microsoft Press' version as the "average". This one defintely falls below average in terms of technical information. However, there are not a lot of MSCE book available...so it gets two stars instead of one. Get the Microsoft Press' version to prepare for the 70-270.
Very good manual, 2004-02-09
Reviewer rating:
Nice training guide for teaching for the needed skills to pass the exam. I used this in conjuction with the cram exam 2 and passed my first try.. Included testing software was nice also.
You must be crazy!!!, 2003-11-10
Reviewer rating:
So, I'm supposed to believe that 736 pages can contain all the needed materials to prepare someone for the MCP exam 70-270. Also that this one book will cover all the aspects of the test, while providing step by step instructions to help reinforce each learning objective; not to mention review questions after each chapter plus a cd with a practice exam. This is what I'm supposed to believe...

If it wasn't Que, I couldn't believe it!

Garbage, 2003-08-21
Reviewer rating:
This book does not provide a useful means for passing the 70-270 exam. It glosses over the major aspects of the system, rarely providing the finer details that are necessary for doing well on the exam. Do yourself a favor and try the Exam Cram 2 book instead.
