Cost for MCSE tests.

[fvlmasl2]

Hello,

I was wondering about the cost for the tests. In additions to books and\or classes one needs to take for MCSE prep., what are the actual test costs?

Thanks

The tests cost $125, if I remember right.

As far as study requirements, that really depends on your level of expertise. One who has been working with Windows for several years will probably only need one book to brush up on the testing material. While one who is starting out will need several books, software, and possibly some test network equipment....

Thanks,

there are also websites that advertise discounts for cert vouchers... Matt correctly notes that buying a couple PCs, a hub/switch/router, some cables, and some eval software to go along with the books is the best way to study...

Nothing beats hands-on when you get to the trick questions...

Setnaffa is an MCP-W2K (working on MCSE-W2K) with a few other certs, too...

The cost of the tests may be on the rise, as Microsoft is trying to cut down on the number of paper MCSEs by increasing the cost of the tests...

According to the MCP mag.
