Is it not easier to do these exams separately rather than taking them all in one go because you have 2 books to read at once and Vista is still new and you are still getting used to some of the new features? MCDST izs easy because we all have been using XP for sometime and we know most stuff by head and some of the questions where related to things you knew before reading the exams. Please advise whether I am better off sitting for these exams separately or there is less questions and its easier when combined.
