The MS Press books are very good starting points. I would also suggest a set
of practice tests. I like transcenders personally, but there are others that
are good, as well. For the MS Press books to work for you, you need to do
the labs in the books; they are garbage if you are not going to apply them.
Look at the train cert site for the proper books for each test or buy the
entire kit for all exams.
The tests are not all that tricky for .NET, if you know the material.
NOTE: You do not have to study the namespaces to pass the test. You do need
to know the proper objects to code for common tasks (like how to set up a
connection object and the methods and properties most oft used). Trying to
memorize the namespaces and all objects is an interesting endeavor, but
largely a waste of time.
