MCTS and MCITP practice exams

[KentState]

Has anyone been successful in finding quality practice exams online for the any of the MCTS or MCITP tests? I want to see how well I can do before spending money on books or training.

Thanks.

I have MCTS and I was unsuccessful in finding any practice tests (like two years back). However, I followed the prep-guide on the MCP Website and came out unbruised on the other side. Of course, this can be expensive, but I am assuming your employer will cover you.

You have to know the APIs and base classes on almost all the MCTS-level exams. I don't know if this has changed or if the content has been updated for the Framework 3.5 or 4.0.

Good luck!

My employer hasn't been paying for training and I'm really doing this on my own. The main reason for the practice exams is to make sure I'm not in over my head. I'm working on the various SQL Server 2008 certs and have 12+ years working with SQL Server in general. Everything I've seen so far seems straight forward and the tests are ~$125 so I'm not worried about the costs.
