MTA Microsoft Technology Associate Developer Exams 98-361, 98-363 and 98-375 ExamFOCUS Study Notes & Review Questions 2015 Edition - Softcover

The Microsoft Technology Associate MTA certification is an entry-level certification which serves as a good starting point for students and educators who may eventually progress to the higher programs. Simply put, it assesses the foundational knowledge necessary to pursue MCSE, MCSD and the like. The MTA certification focuses more on knowledge and a little less on skills. However, the knowledge areas are all based on MS products so you must know those products inside and out. Questions on the general knowledge are relatively easy. Product and technology specific technical questions, however, are way more difficult. This is why we developed this study product - we focus on those difficult topics that involve difficult technical skills. We want you to be able to answer these difficult questions and secure exam success accordingly.

We give you knowledge information relevant to the exams specifications. To be able to succeed in the real exams, you’ll need to apply your earned knowledge to the question scenarios. This ExamFOCUS book focuses on the more difficult topics that will likely make a difference in exam results. The book is NOT intended to guide you through every single official topic. You should therefore use this book together with other reference books for the best possible preparation outcome.

In the early days of certification study preparation the focus was almost exclusively on cramming. We had a new medium for content that didn’t come with the same restrictions as the more traditional forms. We could present material as we felt was necessary and we could do it quicker. As the certification industry grew, so did the approach to gaining readership. In many cases, publishers had their focus shifted away from ultimate understanding of what was being covered, to producing word-for-word exact-match contents significantly motivated by increasing revenue. While it’s definitely easier to produce content by going that route, we don’t believe it’s the only way to conquer an exam. At the same time, we don’t believe readers need the 500-page megatext. As long as there’s a balance, we are happy. Our mission at ExamREVIEW is to be a part of that balance. Our No-Frills ExamFOCUS study notes are written to be plain simple and straight forward. We don’t paginate material to increase page count, we break them apart across logical boundaries to improve readability. All fancy extra features are removed. We provide study notes that are concise and occupying less pages (so to save trees). And we want you to be up and ready as easy as possible! We are the original developer of our NO FRILLS Exam prep products. Contents are developed entirely in-house, basing on our own research efforts. We believe that with the right preparation material and the right study approach, everyone can clear exams ethically. Many of our products include practice review questions. Think of these as challenges presented to you so to assess your comprehension of the subject matters. The goal is to reinforce learning, to validate successful transference of knowledge and to identify areas of weakness that require remediation. The questions are NOT designed to “simulate” actual exam questions. If you are looking for “realistic” or actual questions, please shop somewhere else.
