I'm starting to study for the Microsoft Exam 70-229.
Which is the best book?
Any good website? Mock exams?...
I have a pretty good idea of database concepts and standard sql, so
I'm looking for something very specific for the actual exam.
Any suggestion is more than welcome.
Thanks!

I actually took and passed mine on Monday.

All my study was done using the Sybex book. It has quite a few minor
errors, but if you keep your eyes open they are easy to get around.
It's usually something very obvious.

When it came to taking the test, I wasn't sure if I wasn't sure if I
felt fully prepared. Still, I pulled an 860 out of 1000, so the study
must have gone pretty well.

FYI, on the test itself, it was 44 questions with about 110 minutes
time. I believe there was about 20 minutes left on the clock when I
finished.

To get more information on the Sybex book, and a few alternatives,
take a look at:

Good luck!
