Microsoft Certification Tips

Travis here is what I did.  To Become a MCP, just take one test(70-271).

To become a MCDST take these two tests 70-271 and 70-272   Go Here

Then for a MCSA go here

You are supposed to take 4 exams, one of which is an elective BUT  "As an alternative to choosing an elective exam listed in the preceding table, you can choose the following certifications or certification combinations." and that certification is an MCDST.  Get it?

So if you are a MCDST FIRST then you only have to take 3 more tests Exam 70-270, Exam 70-290, Exam 70-291.  I have the test questions for these 3.

Then if you want to become an MCSE you go here:

And there are even more tests to take...(3 more maybe) BUT if you take the path in order of MCP-MCDST-MCSA-MCSE  then you will have to take less tests because you have already taken some of them to fullfill the other certs.  Then you will have ALL 4 certs...(I only have 3)

And now I am reading that EVERYTHING changes with 2008.. The new Cert is called an Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP) and you can either become an  MCITP: Server Administrator or an MCITP: Enterprise Administrator.
