Just curious...

This is a really dumb question, but is it so that you are "supposed" to pass an exam if you study the material supplied by that vendor? i.e. if I am planning to sit the Windows 2000 server exam, for example, then I *should* be able to pass by studying only the MOC, otherwise they are actually wasting out time selling this material to us.

I know this is really actually a "waste-of-time" post, but I am just curious.

No, I think that most people can not pass the exams with only material they got from the vendor. Somebody was posting the other night that they passed 70-215 and they claimed to have only used the MOC. While I guess its possible, I personally would not try to take any of these exams using the MOC as my only resource.

Well, I am actually busy preparing for 216, and I am using the MOC, Troytech and Transcenders, and was wondering if it was any good, and if I would be able to pass the exam using these resources.

I'm not sure about 216 , I have not taken this one yet, I hear its a tough one though. For 210 I used Moc and Transcenders and I'm using the same for 215.

If you haven't done 215 yet...

Just a hint for 215. I did not find the Transcenders helpful at all when it came to the 215 exam. What I used to pass the exam was Troytech, the MOC, and hands-on experience. Use the Transcenders just as a very, very last resource if you can. I found it to be a waste of time, that is why I am curious about the Transcenders for 216, and I am wondering if it will also be useless for 216.

Anyways, that is just me. Who knows, maybe you can find it more helpful than me. Good luck anyways, and let us know how you did.

Thanks for the advice about 215, I'm probably taking it in 2 weeks, I'll be sure to post whether I pass or fail.
