MS Books. TO me they both didn't prepare you for the=20

I also went out on my own and purchased selftest software=20

advice take your time when you take the exam and try to=20
comprend the full question and recognize there may be two=20
correct answers but only best answer.

that I got a 2nd copy of each book. I ended up listing=20
and selling them on half.com
