Hey folks, I'm gearing up for my last exam before EA and I'm wondering what the best study guides are. I've got the MS Press study guide for this exam, but it feels..lacking somehow. That and it's over a year old ( I think ). I understand the exam focus has changed in that time period.

I've got a windows 7 box I'm doing the stuff on, but I'd like to be sure I'm prepped for this exam. Any suggestions?

This is what I use for study guides. Their guides are pretty good. They usually go on-sale for $1 every couple months. If you do buy it their sale team will call you afterward so don't answer the phone when you see the 800 number. Last time they called me, they told me I wasn't man enough to buy their practice exams, LOL.

(My little .02 cents is this. Take the 620 exam instead of the 680. The 680 was the hardest test and only MS test I failed. The 620 was about as hard as the A+ exam. You don't need to study for it but just know the UAC and system requirements.)
 
Awesome, thanks.

And I appreciate the suggestion, but for my line of work 7 will be more useful. Many businesses are skipping XP and going straight to 7. After this I will be testing for the 686 to round it out.
 
AND passed. As of this morning, I am MCITP: EA certified.

Again, thanks for the link. I'm sure I will be abusing it later.
 
ahh Novell.... been a while since I came across a groupwise install. I'm spending a fair amount of time migrating Lotus Notes environments these days.

So long as you've got some VM space to play with, you should be fine.
