What is a good book to study for the 70-680 (Configuring Windows 7) exam?
Dwarf63, Thanks for the links. However, I was very dissapointed with the last ExamCram book that i purchased. I purchased the one for exam 70-290 and the material and practice questions seemed much more basic than what I encountered on the actual test. Maybe it was just the book for that exam but It has me a bit hesitant to purchase another one.Nate

I understand that there are a fair amount errors in this book but I found an link to the corrections that someone on another forum posted. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978189 So I'm just gonna note the corrections when the book arrives and start plowing through it.Nate

I just passed my first Microsoft exam the other day. I took 70-290 and scored an 850 so I was pretty excited. I'm now thinking of doing exam 70-290 and wanted to get opinions on which book to purchase. I used the Microsoft Press book for my last exam. I felt that it was written well and covered much of the material,but I was glad that I didn't rely completely on that book as there was a lot of material on the test that was not covered in the book. I noticed that a lot of people like the Sybex books for studying material. So I was just curious, which do you prefer, Microsoft Press or Sybex? ThanksNate
