1. Don't get bogged down studying the wrong information Designed exclusively for the MCSE exams, TCP/IP MCSE Study Guide focuses on the exam objectives without losing track of the overall context you need to master TCP/IP. Detailed chapter-opening cross-references and end-of-chapter summaries, review questions, and labs point you directly to the information you need to pass the TCP/IP exam.
2. Learn directly from the experts Benefit from the real-world experience, product knowledge, and training expertise of Greg Bulette — a Microsoft-certified expert who knows TCP/IP inside out and has helped hundreds of students attain their certification goals.
3. Practice, Practice, Practice The MCSE exams assess more than what you know — they test how well you can apply what you know. Our two-tiered approach will help you assess your practical skills:
   • Instant Assessment: multiple choice, true/false, and short-answer questions to reinforce your basic understanding of the exam objectives
   • Critical Thinking and Hands-On Labs: multiple-step exercises with questions that mirror the performance-based style of the exam
