I am fixing to start studying for the accelerated exam and I was wondering what books, etc. that would be a great deal of help to me in this most impossible adventure? The company I work for has no plans in the immediate future of deploying Windows2000, so I do not have much access to the OS in general. I was thinking of buying the exam prep 2000 core books to aid in study as well as a few others. I am aware of the fact that I still need some hands on experience with 2000 but just was wondering if there were any good books, etc. that would help me on this dark quest?
Please Help!

Personnally I really like "Mark Minasi", his books are very thorough and have plenty of pictures, he also answers his email if you have questions.

The book I am using is Exam Prep Windows 2000 Accelerated by Coriolis. It is pretty well laid out and I like the format. Can't say how it stacks up to the test because I have not taken it yet! But I bought another book earlier, I believe publsihed by Osborne, it was horrible. So beware and look them over real good before you plunk down the dough.

Good Luck!

Thanks, think I will buy this book along with the exam prep core books. At least that will get me started in the right direction.

I like "New Riders" - "MCSE Windows 2000 Accelerated Exam" by B.Komar
ISBN - 0-7357-0979-3
It's good.

The Transcender Core Pack is great. You get the full test for the four core exams and one of the design exams. It is a little pricey, but you get a great feel for the exam questions, and what I have always liked about Transcender products is the question explainations. They are great about telling way the specific answers are correct and why the others are incorrect.
I have always learned more from Transcender explainations, then from a study book.
Also if you get TechNet, read through theResource Kit, thats where it all comes from.
The Exam Prep Accelerated Book is a nice complement book.

Thanks for the info on Transender, I don't know if I really got that kind of money to spend on study material though. Ryan
