Great study guide for this test!!
I'm not sure why this book has gotten so many bad reviews. This is the main book I used to prepare for this exam, and I passed it on the first try with a 900+ score. I used mainly this book, and the Windows 2000 Server resource kit to fill in the gaps on some of the things that I didn't feel totally competant with.
This book, and some hands on experience in a test network is plenty to pass this exam.
Take it from a 2000 MCSE, this one will help you greatly in passing this test.

Good Enough
Using this book, and a brief review using the transcenders I was able to pass the server test without a problem (I got a 900, 660 is passing). Although this book is very similar to the W2K Pro book, and there are some minor factual errors, this is true of most other study guides I have read as well. I was also left wanting a little bit more depth, and received a few questions on the exam that I didn't remember reading related material about in this book, but not enough to keep me from passing by a long shot. As always, hands-on experience is also helpful, but this book is definately sufficient for the exam!

Absolute trash
This book contains as many mistakes as the Windows 2000 Professional book written by these same useless Shinder clowns. After reading the first 3 chapters I realized I was wasting my time reading this muddled garbage and threw the book in the trash where it belongs. I have ordered the Microsoft Training Kit to study for the 70-215 exam. Most of this book is an exact copy of the Windows 2000 Professional book - they haven't even bothered to replace all the "Windows 2000 Professional" parts with "Windows 2000 Server" that they've copied.
