Jason, there are two things to consider when looking at MCAD/MCTS exams in
the development area.


First, the .NET Framework v1.1 exams, as you've seen, are language specific.
70-315 Web Applications with C#
70-316 Windows Applications with C#
70-320 XML Web Services and Server Components with C#

There's an equivalent set of exams at:
70-305 Web Applications with VB
70-306 Windows Application with VB
70-310 XML Web Services and Server Components with VB.

To obtain the MCAD, its really only a question of Windows vs Web -- where
does your basic experience with VC# exist? That's where I would suggest you
proceed from. Note, also, that the MCAD requires two exams, one of the
windows/web app exams, and one of 70-310 or 70-320.

Note, however, that for the MCTS (.NET Framework v2.0) exams, the decision
between VB and VC# is not made at hte time of exam registration (e.g. 70-305
vs 70-315), but rather at the moment you sit down for the exam (during the
instructions you'll pick your preferred language).

70-528 Web-Based Client Development, or
70-526 Windows-Based Client Development

plus all MCTS certs require 70-536 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Application
Development Foundation.


Second, the other *critical* question is -- which version of C# have you
been studying?

If you've been working with Visual C# 2003 (and .NET Framework v1.1) then
you're on the right exam track;
however, if you've been working with Visual C# 2005 (Express Edition?)
(and .NET Framework v2.0),

then you probably want to be starting with the 70-536, followed by one of
the 70-526 or 70-528 (again, the question being windows vs web).


Note: merely studying the language will not likely serve you well in passing
the exams, though it is possible. Ideally you should have some actual
experience developing real-world applications. A *great* place to get this
kind of experience is a non-profit (who are always seeking volunteers), or a
small business (who might be willing to create an unpaid internship) looking
to develop a new custom windows or web application. Another great way is to
come up with your own concept for an application that has a real-world need,
and build it yourself, into a completed product.
