MS Certification 70-536: Test Prep:
There are a ton of ways to prepare for this thing and everyone learns things differently. I’m a code guy, I need to see the code in action and understand what it does to actually retain anything. The problem with Microsoft tools is that they make it too damn easy to program: type an object name and press . and presto here’s your multiple choice test of methods then press ( and presto here are your parameters…. <thought optional>
Anyways, my strategy includes Tony Northrup 70-536 study guide, wrox Professional C#, the Measure-Up test and some code labs.
I used the Measure-Up test to identify my weaknesses, then list the areas from weakest to strongest and start from the top down. Hit each chapter in the study guide, then create a fake application for each technical area to drive home each concept.
Here are some links, I would recommend getting a used version of the study guide because the test is so old there should be a million old ones out there.
