Thank you for sharing.
Do you have any insight on SQL Server Administration - 70-432?

If you already had 2005 certification then most probably just write one paper 70-453 and you get MCIPT. In Database Administration though, which I cleared last year.
I am far away from programming.
453 UPGRADE: Transition your MCITP Database Administrator Skills to MCITP Database Administrator 2008
SQL DBA.

The following is incorrect: "One warning - if you buy a SQL Server 2005 book, ensure you consult Books Online after reading through a subject. For instance, there are only four isolation levels in SQL Server 2005; SQL Server 2008 has added the SNAPSHOT isolation level"
Two SNAPSHOT isolation levels were added in SQL 2005.

Re: joncooney73. I was not aware that Pass 4 Sure & Self Exam Engine (both of whom I'm pretty sure are the same company) are possibly regarded as braindumps. I don't advocate the use of braindumps under any circumstances - if you're not interested in learning about the product, don't take the exam. That said, I don't recall seeing any questions on the exams that were in the two testing engines mentioned.
mchou, I am actually studying for 70-432 at the moment, using the Wrox book by Brian Knight et al. Unfortunately I'm moving house too, so time is limited. I'll try to write something up on it when I eventually take the exam.
Alexander, the Robert Vieira SQL Server 2005 book does not mention the Snapshot Isolation Level, which is why I've stated there are only four levels in SQL Server 2005. You are correct however, the SNAPSHOT isolation levels were added in SQL Server 2005. This is an error on my part. The point still stands that you should be aware of the SNAPSHOT isolation level for the exams.

But BOL states that 2005 offers the four SQL-92 isolation levels, and additionally the SNAPSHOT isolation levels. Surprising that you tout BOL as the gold standard, yet you referenced a book. ;)
Is there any chance you can correct the article itself instead of simply acknowledging the error here?
Thanks, Phil
