Microsoft's MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) program is a rigorous testing and certification program for Windows NT system and network administrators. To achieve certification, one must pass four required exams and two elective exams. Close to twenty potential elective exams exist, although only nine of them are current electives covering the most recent version of a given product. Microsoft has also just introduced the MCSE+Internet certification, which requires passing seven required exams and two elective exams. There are four current elective exams to choose from to attain this certification.
MCSE: The Core Exams in a Nutshell is a comprehensive study guide that covers the required exams offered in the MCSE certification. The companion book, MCSE: The Electives in a Nutshell, covers the most important and popular elective exams for the MCSE certification and also covers the other required and elective exams for the MCSE+Internet certification.
The required exams covered in this book are:
- Networking Essentials
- Windows NT Workstation
- Windows NT Server
- Windows 95 (you must choose either the NT Workstation or Windows 95 exam)
Each chapter in the book covers one exam. It includes:
- A summary of the key areas covered by the exam
- A description of the format and difficulty of each exam and tips for passing it
- Definitions of key terms
- Sample test questions and answers
Any administrator who is serious about passing the required exams needed to acquire MCSE certification will find this book an invaluable tool.

Review
The book is divided into five sections: Networking Essentials; Windows NT Workstation; Windows NT Server; NT Server in the Enterprise and Windows 98. Though not profusely illustrated, the book has excellent summaries of information in a readily digestible style, with plenty of panels explaining details such as the emphasis or interpretation of actual examinations.
Each section includes practice tests (primarily multiple choice questions), study hints and a summary of information covered by the pertinent exam. Usefully, all the acronyms used are expanded, and information is most often detailed in point form lists. Though there is an index, it's far from comprehensive, though not too much should be expected of an index to a study guide. It's important to emphasise that this is not a reference book for those hoping to gain expertise in the products appearing in the chapter headings: it is a revision aid only, written for experts who require study and revision help.--Wilf Hey

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
