I'm eager to get my MOS certification and I'm confident that this book can help me get it.
It starts out pretty slow - covering the basics and introducing you to the essentials of using a computer and understanding excel. That doesn't mean that you should skip over the beginning. The beginning has some very interesting techniques on using excel and handling cell formating that no one should ignore.
The guts of this book is in functions and how easily it allows you to understand them. I've been using excel for nearly all of my college career, and I find that functions are the sunshine and the bane of any student's existence. They allow you to do so much but if you don't understand them your better off using a calculator. With this book, you'll get it and get your work done fast and with minimal errors.
The only complaint I have about this book that it has too few practice scenarios. They really help you ingrain the information but they're so few of them that it becomes a tedium to practice the same ones over and over again ... (Well, I like to practice till I'm dead tired, maybe you'll find the 32 practice scenarios for the 12 chapters enough, but I'm a geek and I would like more.)
This book covers everything you need to know for the exams and more than enough for anyone who wants to make their life easier when using excel.

This is the best book ever for someone that needs to learn anything about excel and how to use the spreadsheets, workbooks and any function within. I would recommend this book to users that have never used excel to the more advanced user that needs to utilize other aspects that they have never used before. Great book.
