I just took the exam yesterday got 820! Needed 620 to pass.I had NEVER used or read anything about 2000 till May 2001.Brought the book studied one new chapter a day.Then spent nearly 2 weeks review. I put 2000 on my computer and did at least3 pratise exams a day.I spent usually 30 minutes on each exam answering 60 questions.I also used Transcender but that got boring after you have taken the same exams 5 times.The amount of questions really helped.On my test I had at LEAST 10 questions and exhibits on IP and RIS. Know the requirements for RIS. Another good thing--He puts in LOTS of diagrams.Pay close attention--Microsoft will ask you what options are on a particular screen. Now the bad points:The author has a section on IP but he really should say more about HOSTS, LMHOSTS, and DNS and some of the problems that you may see. He says he will mention backup in chapter 8--could not find it. :-(His section on backup in chapter 13 does enough forthe test but he does not even tell you about the differant types of backup--daily, copy, etc. On some exam questions the answers are like TRACERT but they are not mentioned in the book.He should give the common IP commands in the network section.All he says is using ping and IPCONFIG.He does not even mention some of the options such as RELEASE and RENEW.These are small things but I think he should beef up the network section a little.
I should state that I have used WIN '95/NT for 6 years. All in all...GET THE BOOK AND TRANSCENDER and you will pass then test.
