Microsoft Office Specialist - exams

Morning all,

I'm considering doing the exams for the above certification, would ideally like to get the master certification. To get this, you must complete 3 exams (MS Word, MS Excel, MS Powerpoint) and 1 elective exam (MS Access or MS Outlook).
I just wondered if anyone on these boards has done these exams? How tough are they? I'm using most of the programs on a daily basis, but its been a while since I've really had to do anything 'fancy' with word etc. I did a city & guilds course about 5 years ago which covered a lot of ground, formatting, tables etc. so that should help me out.

Can anyone recommend any books/websites that might help me prepare for this?

Thanks very much,

Check out www.fas.ie - Their online college is very good value, and quite good if you know the basics.

I'm considering it myself, through them also

I took the Excel XP exam a couple of years ago. I bought the book and took the exam in MoreSoft at the top of Leeson Street.

Prodigy (www.prodigy.ie/ ) are the Irish distributors for this. They have lots of info on their web site about this.
