Description
Most other certification books seek Microsoft approval, meaning they must include at least 50% tutorial material, and cover every objective for every exam, no matter how frivolous or relevant to the actual exam. MCSE Fast Tracks break away from that mold by focusing only on what you really need to know. Targeted to those who know the technology but who don't yet have the certification, MCSE Fast Track: Visual Basic 6, Exam 70-176 features only what the more-experienced candidate needs to know to pass the exams. Each book in the Fast Track series has two parts. Part One contains all the information you need to know about the exam. It uses an easy-to-follow approach to drills you on exam-critical information. Part Two features classroom-tested, instructor-proven review strategies, including Fast Fasts, Hotlists of Exam-Critical Concepts, Sample Test Questions, and the Insider's Spin. MCSE Fast Tracks are your accelerated path to MCSE success.
