these tests, quizzes, and lab exams suck. even when you type the correct answer, it marks it wrong. Even when you copy and paste, it marks it wrong. something needs to be done.
The uCertify platform is very much interactive and the labs are also versatile and help in understanding all the concepts covered in the exam. The labs simulate real-world, hardwar...e, software & command line interface environments to offer a complete understanding of exam objectives with the real-world scenarios. As an MCSA certified professional, I highly recommend this course to the students willing to take the MCSA 70-740 exam.
