The Mastering Series CDs are the materials that are used in their MOC
courses for the various development languages. I will point out, however,
that they're no longer available for sale (MS is reorganizing their
courseware lines to bring the development and systems courseware a bit mor
ein line with each other). I do not believe, however, that there are
Mastering Series titles for the systems classes.
Another point is that the development tests are rather different in
approach from the systems tests. The dev tests tend to require a rather
deep and very functional understanding of the language and tools in
question.
