MCSE: Core Infrastructure, Which 4th exam to take?

jpanda206

As described in another post.  MCSE Core Infrastructure is the thing for 2019.  Choose from: 70-413, 70-414, 70-473, 70-475, 70-537, 70-744 or 70-745 to earn this MCSE if you already have MCSA: Server 2016.

I am looking at these three:70-413: Designing and Implementing a Server Infrastructure, 70-414: Implementing an Advanced Server Infrastructure, or 70-744: Securing Windows Server 2016.  Which would be the path to least resistance fellas/gals?

If you are going to be in a pure 2016 environment then 70-744 would be the best choice. If you just want to knock out MCSE then 70-413 is the easiest choice.

I took 70-744 because I had my MCSA 2016.  The exam wasn't too bad, one of the few I pass first time.

70-744 as it relates to Windows Server 2016(currently studying, taking in January). 70-413/414 are older exams for 2012 R2(but looking at the objectives, it does have some things I'd love to learn myself). The other exams honestly don't know. I work as a Windows Engineer at my job and focus is on OS so for me personally if I had not chosen myself yet it would be 70-413/414/744 to choose from. The other test are from my point of view really different and out of my wheelhouse.  Eventually need to learn Azure/AWS, but that's down the road. 

Good luck on choosing! I'd look at all the objectives and decide what you want to lab up/learn.
