I just took the Excel certification exam and a couple of the tasks weren't in
the Excel 2003 course. I'm pissed because it was the difference between
passing and failing!

Maybe some things aren't supposed to be in the course, some things might be
left to the person who takes the exam to find out using his/her brain to
find out the answer(s) applying things that were in the course. I have never
taken a course where I could find each answer of a test, I apply things from
courses and common sense. Did Microsoft make this course and did Microsoft
test you? Maybe it's good that people who think they can take a class and
after that pass an exam without doing anything on their own do fail since
they might not do as good of a job if they pass the exam?

I agree pattis1313 - I hate to waste my time on half a course! If they can't
teach the subject, maybe they should find another career!
