• Not Sufficient Enough Alone.
05 December, 2007
I used this book and read it cover to cover. I got to the point where I was able to answer all practice exam questions correctly and even took the measure up test and scored a 98% on that. Then I took the REAL exam and found that this book did not prepare me well enough. Almost, but not quite. I scored a 551, just shy of the 700 I needed to pass. If you are thinking about using this book, it is good enough to teach you enough to know what Microsoft is talking about in the questions on the real test, but it will not teach you exactly what the right answer is. I felt that it was not in depth enough...no examples didn't help matters much. I wouldn't recommend it unless you are using more material as well. Unless you do Active Directory, SUS, configure RRAS & VPNS, DHCP, and DNS every day for your job, you pry won't pass just using this book. Good luck!

• Solid Exam Cram Quality
06 March, 2008
This book is a solid entry into the Exam Cram series. Good, concise information with just enough info needed. There are some printing errors in the sample quizzes that omit complete multiple choice answers in some cases, which should have been caught in the proof process. I used this plus a CBT and passed the exam.

• Great Study Guide
26 June, 2007
I found that the book is a great study guide. I would not recommend it for someone who does not have any experience with the server software, but I found it beneficial as a refresher course and to help me in some of my weaker areas. Several people noted that the unique registration code is expired, mine was too, but all I had to do was send an e-mail to MeasureUp support and just explain the situation and they unlocked the code for me.

• Good Book
28 October, 2009
I typically steer away from any "Cram" guides in favor of learning from an established book. However this guide was very informative and helped me prepare and pass the then Beta exam. It defiantly was worth the investment.

• What! The Registration Code Has Expired!
10 June, 2007
I was a little disappointed to discover the unique registration code had expired 8 days before I had received the book.
This book is more of an outline and review of the materials covered on the 70-291 exam. I believe this book would only be beneficial to individuals who have experience with managing a Windows Server 2003 network and who need a quick review prior to taking the exam.
If you are inexperienced with managing DNS, DHCP, or RRAS, this book would be of little value: It is not a reference book.
Another compliant I have is the practice questions in this book are not similar to the questions on the exam. The questions on the exam are much more difficult.
The only positive comment I have about this book is it's format is well organized. Each objective is laid out by chapter. This book is definately better organized than the MSCA Self Paced Training Kit from Microsoft Publishing.
Overall, I am giving this book a rating of 3 stars.
