Summary: Keep looking ...
Comment: I've passed 3 exams out of 4 so far and honestly I'm disappointed. 70-210 was the last one and it was the best book so far. Server and Network are quite off the real exam topics and were not the most effectife resourse in my training. Another funny thing I've noticed is if you look at each book Amazon.com individual rating it's much lower then the whole set's one.

Summary: Perfect for Real World Techies
Comment: Let's face reality, Micro$oft modifed the MCSE 2000 exams so that simple memorization wouldn't be enough to pass (ie: the MCSE NT 4 "Paper Certification"). They were designed for people already in the IT/Computer industry. If you're not working in a tech related field, and you don't have at least SOME access to the hardware/software, you're gonna have issues.
That said, lemme say that these books are perfect for "Real World Techies".
I can't speak about other books in this series, but I can say as a former programmer and current IT Manager (yes, I got coder's burn out), I breezed through the first 4 tests with these books.
Read through one, take a practice test (I'm partial to Transcender), go over the weak spots, take another practice exam just to make sure I got it down, and take the exam.
I averaged one test every two weeks. Passed every time.
This is not to say the tests are easy. Nor are these books "all inclusive" But I manage a 10 server 50+ node 3 domain network that was entirely NT 4/Win98. Doing the migration after I passed the tests was a breeze.
I only needed one other book outside of these 4...and that was because TCP/IP sub netting can be a pain in the butt. (as we are all aware)
If you're a techie, and are thinking about taking the exams, buy this cluster of books. If you're solid with the basics of NT4, you'll never regret buying these.

Summary: It is not only passing the exam
Comment: I beleive that these books are not only for passing the exam but also for learning what is need in those subjects. I used these books and I pass the four core already. I plan to buy the other ones for the electives too. In these books they show you screen shots which are not needed in the exam but you need them if you need to work with W2K products.
