Targeting VCP 5.1 (510)

My resources are;

1. Experience. I used 5.1 at ACCENT for about a year, and the design in place is mine.
2. New Horizons training; I negotiated with my employer to pay for the previously purchased training at the corporate discount, paid out of my personal training budget. This is the class; Course Outline: VMware® vSphere Install, Configure, Manage v5.1. This is about a 3k class. You cannot sit for a VMware class without the classroom training. There is also a “boot camp” class of 5 days, but it costs 6k and qualifies you for the SAME TEST, so to me, I don’t see the point in that class if it’s my own money.
3. I have the VMware books from the 5.0 class I bought them on eBay for about $200.00
4. I will get the 5.1 books with the class above
5. I also have the book “VCP5” from Brian Atkinson and like it a LOT.
6. VCP practice tests – I’m not going to name any but they can help target weak spots.
7. I have a very active profile on VMware user groups; http://www.vmware.com/my_vmware/overview.html, you can look up questions, see KB articles, and ask questions there.
8. Also set up an account on http://mylearn.vmware.com which is their training site. From here  you can get free videos, free example tests, free downloads, etc. as well as tracking of your training history.
9. Download and review the exam BLUEPRINT from the above training site.
10. I’m in the training next week, so with the above resources I think I’ll be ready for the test.
11. Oh, yeah, I have a stack of DL380 G5s in my basement running VMware 5.1 so that helps. I got most of them free, from disposed units. one I paid $150.00 for.
