1. Installing the Microsoft Certified Professional Assessment Exams
-------------------------------------------------------------
To install the Assessment Exams on a hard disk using the
included Setup program:
a. Load Windows 3.1 or higher
b. Insure that you can access the disk or drive
containing the Microsoft Certified Professional
Assessment Exams program and exam files.
c. Run SETUP.EXE from Program Manager, File Manager or
the Windows 95 start menu. SETUP.EXE will create a
directory and copy the necessary files to your disk
and create a Program Manager group.
d. Once SETUP.EXE has completed, you may execute the
assessment program by clicking on the Assessment
Exams Program Item, or by running the LNCHTST.EXE
program from the File Manager, Program Manager or
Windows 95 Explorer.
Do not directly execute the WTDP.EXE program.
2. Using the Assessment Exams
------------------------------------------------------------
To become a Microsoft Certified Professional you must pass a
series of standardized exams which reflect your knowledge
and skill in planning, implementing, and supporting
solutions with Microsoft products. The Microsoft

evaluate your knowledge and skills prior to taking the
actual certification exams. Version 4.1 of the Assessment
Exams contains 26 assessment exams:

These assessment exams will also give you practice answering
questions of a format similar to those on the actual exams.
Because these assessment exams cover many of the concepts
you are required to know for certification, the higher you
score on a specific assessment exam, the closer you may be
to passing the actual certification exam. However, these
exams do not serve as actual certification exams, nor does
performance on these exams guarantee or directly correlate
to the success you may have on the actual certification
exams.
Setting Your Name
------------------------------------------------------
To set your name on an exam, click the Options button
on the Select a Test window. This will bring up a
dialog box that will allow you to enter your first and
last name. When you start an exam, your name will
appear in the test introduction and on any score
reports.
Starting An Exam
------------------------------------------------------
To take an assessment exam, click on one of the exam
titles in the Select a Test window. Text describing
the specific exam will appear in the Description
window. To start the exam, click the Start Test
button.
There is no time limit on the assessment exams. And,
you may repeat the assessment exams as often as you
wish.
On-line help is always available by clicking the Help
button or pressing F1.
Answering Questions
------------------------------------------------------
Specific instructions are provided for answering each
question. Read the on-screen prompts before
answering a question, to be sure that you understand
what is expected.
If you answer a question incorrectly, you will be
given feedback indicating the correct answer. You
will be allowed to review previous questions and to
mark those you wish to review later, but you cannot
change your answer to a question after proceeding to
the next question. (You may repeat the exam if you
wish.)
Scoring
------------------------------------------------------
After you end the exam, your score will be
automatically displayed. You can also check your
scores on each exam using the Scores button in the
Select a Test window. A record is kept of all the
scores for the exams you have taken.
The assessment exams are not scored as pass or fail.
The score given for each assessment exam enables you
to evaluate your knowledge and determine if additional
study may be of benefit.
