As you can see in my signature I´m not fully updated with the certifications on Exchange Server 2007. I´m absolutely not new to Exchange 2007, been playing with it since Beta 1. But I´m curious about the new 3 exams for the MCITP title.
For those of you who have taken all 3 exams, can you share your thoughts on these exams. Which one was the hardest for you, and why?
Prep materials? I recently bought Tony Redmonds book on Exchange 2007 and this far it feels like a great source of information. I also plan to more thoroughly read through the 4 Deplyoyment Guides from Microsoft. What else? Any tips?

I haven't taken all three exams but I did just get 70-237 out of the way a little over a week ago. I don't think I can accurately comment on the difficulty of this particular exam due to the fact that I was having trouble concentrating because of another noisey test taker in the room with me. Also, for some reason I had horrible test anxiety that morning. However, it certainly wasn't the most difficult exam I've taken.
The single most valuable resource in preparing for this exam was probably the practice exams. I used SelfTest Software, but others will swear by the more expensive Transcender. They're both under the same parent company, Kaplan, and when I downloaded the Transcender demo, the questions and format were identical to those of SelfTest. My place of employment was also gracious enough to send me to quite a bit of instructor led training on Exchange 2007 during the summer of last year prior to our migration. So I'm sure that helped.
70-238 is up next for me and I hope to pass that within about a month or so. I'll once again be using SelfTest for the practice exams and probably give this book a shot.
