I have an interview with a test, and I need to fresh up ASP.NET/SQL Server/.NET - (which I mostly know well, though there is stuff I haven't done fore some time, and there are basic things I have never done).

What I learn best from - and what is difficult to find with programming, is material organized like mathematics text, where you can read a bit and then have questions/exercises.

I think just reading is not the right thing for me here, and sitting down with visual studio will take to long. The best would be to do something practical with Visual Studio, step-by-step and with support.

(I am mostly looking for free online material)

A: 

If you type "visual studio tutorials" into a search engine, you get:

Learning Visual Studio

(Lots of free training there.)

My question is about material organized a certain way (Finding material is not difficult)

@Olav: your questions states that you are "Looking for free online material " and later "The best would be to do something practical with Visual Studio, step-by-step and with support." well that's what you will find at the link I've posted. Did you take a look? Try an example?

In the case of an interview, just go with what you know, be honest. I don't think cramming is the best option.

As for publicly available resources, there are many .NET resources listed on this thread.

"just go with what you know, be honest." - - There is stuff I "know" that is not fresh, and also with ASP.NET my experience is a bit peculiar, so there is probably basic stuff I don't know.

A: 

I would check www.asp.net/general/videos for ASP.NET tutorial videos, the videos should be helpful to make you cram.

Since your other question is about what MVC is, you should probably sit down and go through the Nerd Dinner tutorial. It's not best practices, but it will get you acquainted with how ASP.NET MVC works.

For MVC my goalis only to be able to talk about it. (For Web Forms it more like actually coding)

@Olav: "For MVC my goalis only to be able to talk about it" - how's that going to help you when you have to do it for real?
Mitch Wheat
The goal was the interview.
