Book Description

Announcing an all-new Self-Paced Training Kit designed to help maximize your performance on 70-620, the required exam for the new Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS): Windows Vista Client certification. This 2-in-1 kit includes the official Microsoft® study guide, plus practice tests on CD to help you assess your skills. It comes packed with the tools and features that exam candidates want most--including in-depth, self-paced training based on final exam content; rigorous, objective-by-objective review; exam tips from expert, exam-certified authors; and customizable testing options. It also provides real-world scenarios, case study examples, and troubleshooting labs for skills and expertise that you can apply to the job.

Work at your own pace through the lessons and lab exercises. Focusing on configuring a Windows Vista client, this official study guide covers topics such as installing the client software, migrating from previous versions of the Microsoft Windows® client, and configuring systems settings, security features, network connectivity, communications and media applications, and mobile devices.

Then assess yourself by using 425 practice and review questions on the CD, which features multiple customizable testing options designed to meet your specific needs. Choose timed or untimed testing mode, generate random tests, or focus on discrete objectives or chapters. You get detailed explanations for right and wrong answers--including pointers back to the book for further study.

You really have to go through all of the questions in the lesson review segment to have a more thorough understanding.

The test questions are also a good resource to test your readiness for the exam.

There are a few errors, both in the text and in the practice test questions. The practice test ones ... Read More

Rating: - MCTS
I was advised to get this book to assist in the Microsoft training I am taking for Vista. This book has been a big help and the CD included is even more helpful. The CD provides a lot more test questions to study with and the book breaks things down for easier understanding.

Rating: - Ok exam study guide
Over all I think this book is ok for studying for the 70-620 exam. This book has a lot of good practices exercises that will hopefully line up well with the exam when I take it next week.
