please post how did you prepare..I want to take the same exam
Hey Archana, there were 2 elements to my preparation. First is hand-on work experience. I have been working with SharePoint for 3 years (2003, 2007 & 2010) and this certainly helped. I don’t recommend doing the exam without some reasonable development experience with SharePoint, as there are many tricks and “undocumented features” you need to know with this platform.
Secondly, I read Sahil Malik’s book: http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-SharePoint-2010-Solutions-Professionals/dp/1430228652/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1313501941&sr=1-1. I read each page and played around with with each example in the book. It took me 4-5 months to read this book from cover to cover.
There is this other book that apparently is coming up: http://www.amazon.com/SharePoint-2010-Developers-Certification-Toolkit/dp/0470912340/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1313501601&sr=1-1 – it should be good when it comes out.
To be honest, the exam wasn’t that hard. With some reasonable development experience and familiarity with the platform and you should be fine.
Hope this help and good luck.
