Prep tests - a dime a dozen; any recommendations?
|
|
|
| I'm about to purchase a prep-test and have been trying to decide between
three different vendors:
Transcender, SelfTest, and MeasureUp....Does anyone have any recommendations
about these vendors?
For the most part, they seem to offer the same thing varying only in #'s of
questions and price. However, I would like to find the closest
approximation to the "real thing" for exam 70-229 in terms of the
difficulty, scope and number of questions....
Any suggestions/experiences you would like to share would be much
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!

| Uh...hello - nice discussion. I appreciate that we're all sharing info and
what not - it's one of the things that I like so much about
newsgroups....But, just one request, can we get back to the "main thread",
plz.
Peachy!

Yes. At least it worked on my case for last fiscal year - but I used to
be on 1099 - self-employee (same as contractor)

| So you think that this subject does not belong here?
Ok then: can anyone tell me where I can find brand dumps so I do not have to
study for the exam 345-8756?
I guess these are the questions more apropriate for this newsgroup, right?

| Danut, you hijacked Null's thread. You should have posted a new message.
Anyway Null, I used Transcender before, and think it is very good. I might
have tried SelfTest and/or MeasureUp demos, but were not too impressed with
them.

| Hm, Outlook Express shows his email under the thread I initiated even if the
subject is different.
