Preparing for VCP-DCV on vSphere 5.5 exam need help

[D33pa]

I am preparing for VCP-DCV on vSphere 5.5 exam, I have two books for the same, VCP5-DCV: VMware Certified Professional-Data Center Virtualization on vSphere 5.5 Study Guide by Brian Atkinson and Mastering VMware vSphere 5.5 by Scott Lowe and Nick Marshal. Just wanted to know if these books are enough for preparation or do I require some more study material and practice questions?

I haven't read them myself but have heard good things about those books, although I would suggest using the VMware documentation as part of your studies as the exam questions are validated for accuracy against it rather than your books.

The one thing you are definitely missing is a lab, some questions are answered much more easily when you have actually done what's being asked about.
