There are exam preparation materials available on the Microsoft site. I
don't know the URL, but if you poke around you can find it.
The Exam Cram books are written with the focus on preparing you to answer
whatever the test throws at you. There are 2 types of tests; the "fixed",
where you get 70 randomly selected questions, and the "CAT", or Computer
Adaptive Test, which is definately the most difficult of the two. The CAT
takes your answers and bases the next question on how you did on previous
questions; it can therefore sniff out your weak areas and flunk you rather
quickly. I bought CAT simulation software and did abysmally on those tests.
When you are lining up a place to take the test, you should ask which form
they use; if they are using CAT I'd suggest you try to find another place!
Hope this helps... good luck.
