What is recommended order and time for exams?

| Hello all,
I am in the planning phase of my MCSD (.NET) path. As you know there are 5 exams. I was wondering if anybody can help me to plan my study path.
I like to know:
Which exams are better to be first or which exams shouldn't be before other ones?
Is it better to study and take exams one by one or take all (or some) of the exams close to each other (like a day or two in between)?
This is my plan now. I would appreciate your help to modify it.
1: 70-300 (Sept 2003)
2: 70-316 (Oct 2003)
3: 70-315 (Nov 2003)
4: 70-320 (Nov 2003)
5: 70-229 (Dec 2003)
Thank you,

| First, let me share one thing from my own experience. I would recommend taking 70-300 AFTER you've worked your way through 315, 316, and 320. I did 300 before the coding tests, and really don't think it was the smart thing to do. But it all depends on your strengths.
Are you a web developer? Then maybe 315 first...then 320...then tackle the Windows stuff. If your strong with Windows Apps, Visual C++, etc. hit 316 first.
I did SQL Server first 'cause I already knew some SQL Server already.
I've been doing them one at a time....I think most people do. Taking one exam and then another one in a couple of days? The only way that would make sense to me is if you were taking courses and studying full-time. Otherwise, the whole idea would scare me to death, to be quite honest.
Just my two-cents worth...best of luck |
