Microsoft Books and Certifications?

Posted by Cliff on from the if-you-must-MSC-anything dept.

ozTravman asks: "I have been doing my Microsoft MCSE exams, so far I have completed 70-270 and 79-290 and I am about to start preparing for 70-291 'Implementing, Managing, and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Network Infrastructure'. I currently work as a Systems Engineer and for the previous two tests I simply read the Microsoft Press books related to the test. However, I found those particular books to be quite useless and found that cramming for the test using Braindumps and practice exams the night before was far more effective and relevant to the test content. I did not even bother finishing the 70-290 book. So what books have other Slashdot readers have used to help them to prepare for these tests?"

    When hiring contractors or staff, if there is mention of MCSE, I file the resume into /dev/null.
    When taking on clients, if they ask me for MCSE, I file them into...you guessed it.../dev/null.
