After I am done with the 70-271 I am going for the MCSA for Windows 2000.
It appears, according to
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mc...uirements.mspx the 70-270 exam
(Installing, Configuring, and Administering Microsoft Windows XP
Professional) will be my first exam I take to achieve it. I feel like this
wont be a hard test to pass considering all the studying i did on 271 and
272. The material looks basically the same. Anybody have a used book?

From there it looks like i'll take the 70-218 test. This looks the most
beneficial to my company the fastest. I will probably take the 70-215 test
last. That looks the most unimportant to me. Does anyone think I should take
the 70-215 prior to taking the 70-218 with good reason? I need to go find a
MCSA newsgroup to join also...

I'll still come here but...

The 70-215 test gave me some worries when I took it. Not sure why, but
it almost did me in. But after the 215, I went and nailed the 218
without an issue. I think you should stick with the 70-215 first.

Also check my blog in the next hour and I will have a 15% discount code
for the exams.

the topics for the 2 tests look highly different! Are you saying your 215
studying really prepped you for the 218 and i should stick to doing the 215
first? i really want to do the 218 first! LOL

I will check with Mitch concerning the code. As for the 215 verses the
218, that is your call. I still stand by my first post!
