I have 2 years exp with SQL Server 2000 and 10 yrs overall
with relational databases. I currently write stored
procedures and install and administer dbs. I have no
experience with clustering or olap/cubes/mdx and little
with dts and xml.

I have been reading BOL and using transcender to try and
learn these other areas but worry I'm not weighting my
time to whats on the test. There also seems to be a lot of
minutia in the flash cards. I'm not sure what to focus on.

My goal is to really learn the required material but in a
time/cost efficient manner.

Q: Would I be better served buy using the 2nd edition
books, do they cover the test or everything?

Q: Do you have an opinion on $7000, 2 week, "Boot Camps"?

Q: Is the 70-240 just a combined 70-215 + 70-216 and are
there other prerequisites for taking it? Does it cost
more?

TIA
