only book you need to pass 70-305
Bought the book, read it and passed the exam. Excellent book. This book gives you just what you need to pass the exam. The review questions and exam questions at the end of each chapter help you grasp the knowledge greatly. The practice test is pretty good at testing your abilibity before you go to take the real test. Definitely recommand it.

excellent book
I liked very much the "how-to" approach that Mike Gunderloy took for this book. It is important to round-up this how-to's with Framework documentation. I think that this book covers very well the exam needs.

Book completely based on Exam Objectives. 1 Practice Test.
After doing some extensive research on the best way to prepare for Exam 70-305, I found this to be one of the best solutions available in the market for the following three reasons - 1. Throughout the book, the chapters closely follow the exam objectives published by Microsoft. This really helps you stay focused on passing the exam. The explanations throughout the book are excellent if you are already familiar with VB.NET for the Web (includes ASP.NET, ADO.NET, the .NET framework, etc.). 2. Each chapter follows an excellent format that ensures that you are fully prepared to address problems on all the exam objectives. The format - a listing of the objectives, chapter outline, study strategies, explanations of concepts in objectives, step by step demonstrations of important tasks, guided practice exercises, chapter summary, exercises, review questions, exam questions and answers. Of course, this guide is not meant to replace regular books to learn the technology. The guide is only meant to help you prepare for the exam once you have learned the technology through other means. 3. An electronic version of the entire book on CD-ROM along with a practice test from Prep Logic and code from the entire book. The CD claims to be only a preview version which means that it only has enough questions for 1 practice test. There is then a link to the Prep Logic website where you are supposed to find a premium version that has 400% the number of questions and hence more practice tests BUT after following the link, I realized that the site doesn't have a premium edition available for this particular exam (there are premium editions for all the MCSE exams but not MCSD). I was a little disappointed but I think the quality of this guide is adequate to pass the exam. Please note that this information is true at the time of writing this review so check the Prep Logic website when you are reading the review to see if anything has changed in this regard. The other books and online courses that try to help one pass this exam don't seem to be as organized and thorough as this book. The online courses that are well organized are too pricey. For this exam, I think this is your best bet to help you prepare. Good luck!
