Has anyone got recommendations for Server 2012 MCSA/MSCE books
I have used the examcram books before and found them really good, but they dont seem to have anything beyond 2008!

cheers

Do you want books for Server 2012 to prepare MCSA/MSCE exam?

I've got the 70-417 MS Press book and tbh I'm not that impressed at a mere 363 pages long and it's not in depth enough. Each to their own though I guess.

someone mentioned the same re the 70-410 book, and numerous errors in the book

Agreed, 6 chapters and pretty brief

I hope the exams are that simple...

I was looking into this last month and noticed a lot of Windows 8/Server 2012 exam books aren't being released till April.

I'm holding off till then for more books to appear.

The best way to tackle MS exams, or any technical exam for that matter, is to use more than 1 reference point.

Go for 2 or 3 books at least, read the technet site, get CBT training if you can and use the software.

Sorry to hijack this thread but it's similar to what I'm after.....can anyone point me to any decent online practice exams? I found one last year but i can't find it now, they gave you the questions properly as you would see it on the actual exam (none of this one sentence junk, instead it was a proper full paragraph scenario based question which i expect are more like the actual exam)

It was free too, just required registering on their site, just wish i could find it! Any ideas please?
