This is an easy exam. In fact, it's a laughably-easy exam if you have a lot of Windows experience and certifications. If you don't, you still shouldn't have

much problem at all. I can't imagine someone failing if they read a good book and study my notes here.
I used the Sybex study guide to study for this exam. It did the job (again, the exam is easy), though I found that it covered a lot of material that the exam

doesn't cover. Those topics end up being covered in the 70-622 exam (Vista, Enterprise Support). If you intend on taking 70-622 next, then the Sybex guide

practically kills two birds with free certification exam papers. If, on the other hand, you don't intend on taking 70

-622 next, you might be better off with the Microsoft study guide, which appears to better-address the 70-620 and not much more. Both are very good and

recommended guides; pick the one that better suits your plans for after 70-620.
