It's pretty easy, don't sweat it. All you have to do is study the night before and brush up, you will do fine and pass. The dummies book's are great and cheap way to get certs. PAPER CERTS R00LZZZZZ!!!!!

I have a copy of W2k Server for Dummies and to be honest I found it totally inadequate.
It doesnt cover half the concepts that other books do.

i read dummy book for NT4 server.
along with just about every nt4 server book that i could found in B&N.

as for comparison... that book is a joke!
not only does it not cover many major sections...
it gives wrong info on lots of them.

i had to go back to other sources to confirm this.
but it just sucks.

if you're gong to study with one book...
this would definately be a wrong one.

and xfile...
help yourself and others that either achieved or are pursuing this certification
by becoming an expert... rather than a paper cert.

learn from the history...
MCSE is not valued half as much as what they used to be.
