microsoft certification

Post by dragon »

My new job wants me to obtain mt MCP and they recommend M70-271 and 272. I have ordered the books and such but was wondering if there was a good place to get some pratice test at?

I'll probably eventually be wanting this too, so I'm curious as well.

Uhm.


In the disk at the back of the book? Did you get the Sybex books or the Microsoft Press books?
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

actually neither I order the exam cram books but they won't be here for about 2 weeks. And I figured I could get an early start.

If you know most of it already and just need the piece of paper to prove you know it, they have braindumps at certkiller.com which are basically copies of the test. Use at your own risk, and if you think it's ethical :)

Good luck.

I've been doing desktop support for the military for the last 5 years and they sent me to certain schools. But these schools were for things like DoD IA 8570.1 which is required to be able to have admin privileges on government computers. So basically I have a hodge podge of computer skills. And even though the CSC here is for the government they wont except the certs I have. So I want to take a practice test to see where I am, and if I need to take the course in its entirety or if I just need certain parts.

This CSC job is starting to look more and more like a pain, maybe I should take the GS position instead? They at least will except all the certs I already have.
