    Hey guys and gals,

    I want to get my MCDST

    But what I need are some study books... i've read a lot but most reviews are outdated on amazon.

    Can anyone recommend who recently took the 271 and 272 test books that are the best? Thanks in advance

    that site looks like its a braindump to me. and a quick google against the domain and 'braindump' seems to agree. BD's are actually against MS' terms and agreement, and is cheating. I would ask you to edit your post and remove the address.

    And I would also suggest that you bin what you were given. They may help you pass the exam, but they ARE cheating and if you are caught, will be banned from ALL MS certifications for life (and any certs will be taken off you). Furthermore, you will be unable to actually DO the job you are studying for.

    Fergal seems to be correct especially if you search for that site/braindumps on google and it comes up with the best free braindumps you can get at their site.

    Just be aware using braindumps can get you decertified for life.

    No problem. we just all tend to move pretty fast on BD sites, to preserve Certforums' integrity.

    Most people arent actually aware that they are cheating, so you werent alone. Kudos to catching on and wanting to do it properly though. I cant comment on the MCDST books myself, but plenty of others can give good recommendations, and theres always google, and us on the forum to help you with the sections you dont understand.

    as far as I am aware they are because the exam hasn't changed since they came out.

    Nice one!
    I have both MS Press books, also the Sybex MCDST and both Exam Cram 2 books - all very useful.
