I read through the exchange study guide book by Will schmied as well as various whitepapers. I also recommend (actually i regard this as an essential) you get some example questions e.g. from transcender. You need to do this to learn how to read what quesion exactly Microsoft are asking of you. Sometimes the question/ list of answers seems to be very ambiguous. As a previous person advised, ensure you are not Exchange only - ensure you have a good understanding of the dependent services: AD, Networks (esp. routing), DNS. When you finish you will get a score breakdown of four or five skill areas; installing exchange, troubleshooting exchange, troubleshooting services supporting exchange, etc.. (securing + managing exchange?)
