This book is actually a gentle hands on tutorial on the basics of WPF with the added bonus of review questions at the end of each chapter and in exam simulation software that comes with the book. I don't know how tough the real exam is, I can only tell you this text covers only the very basics of WPF, and I would be surprised if this was enough to pass a certification exam.. Even having absorbed everything in this book, you would still be at the level of a rookie, far from the mastery level required from a certified professional.
But still, I would recommend this book to any developer who 's totally new to WPF and loves learning by doing labs. Also a decent book for teaching an introductory WPF class. I just wish it has some advanced material on design of professional looking GUIs.
