Summary: Great book
Review: I got my master certification in Microsoft Office 2000 a week ago. All you need to pass the exams are the Prentice Hall MOUS certification series, also the brains :)
The book was thorough and had the core and expert levels. All of the exam questions were covered; the practice tests were very helpful and prepared you for the actual exam. Overall, I was very satisfied with the book. My CD had some flaws. Other than that, I give it two thumbs up. Good luck in your certifications. It's totally worth it.

Summary: Straighfoward Prep Guide for MOUS Excel Exam
Review: I have been using and training in MS Office applications for the past 7 years. This manual is straightforward and layout logically. Begining with the basic MOUS skills and progressing to the expert MOUS skills appears seamless. The book is full of pictures, step-by-step instructions per task, and helpful Pro Tips. This book is not full of "techie" jargon and wordiness.The practice exercises are practical and helpful tools to either learn or refresh the topics covered in each chapter. The end-of-chapter tests also reassess what you just learned in each chapter. The MOUS PinPoint program strongly reinforces the skills you learned after each lesson. The two different software elements in PinPoint - Trainer and Evaluation surely reinforce the skills that you NEED in order to PASS the MOUS Certification exam - Core or Expert. This manual is better layout than the Que E&T MOUS series which use the same PinPoint training and testing software. I would highly recommend this manual and the accompanying PinPoint software to anyone who needs a training aide or manual to practice with for the MOUS certification exam. The only drawback is that is doesn't have anough exercises at the end of each chapter to be used as a training manual. If an additional exercise or two were available - this book would have been rated as a 5-star book.
