My standard resources include CBT Nuggets, the MS Press book, Transcender, and hands-on in a VMWare Workstation (the free server version would also work) virtual lab. The more hands-on you get, the faster you'll learn.

One exam per month is a pretty ambitious schedule, but it's doable. You may want to consider using XP for your client exam and then using Vista for your elective since that one seems to be easier than most of the others (though you won't be as well-rounded as if you took something like Exchange).

I completely agree with the post above. I use CBT Nuggets and the MS Press books and include VMWare as well

Security+ can be used as the elective for both the MCSA and the MCSE. You can also use the A+ and the Network+ as the elective for only the MCSA.
