Can the 70-620 count towards an elective for the MCSE 2003 track as well as the 2008 track?

Yep, it just can't count as both an elective and a core exam for the MCSE.CERTS: VCDX #110 / VCAP-DCA #500 (v5 & 4) / VCAP-DCD #10(v5 & 4) / VCP 5 & 4 / EMCISA / MCSE 2003 / MCTS: Vista / CCNA / CCENT / Security+ / Network+ / Project+ / CIW Database Design Specialist, Professional, Associate -

Cool. Cheers. So if you have a 2003 MCSE, and take 70-649, are you MCSE 2008 esentially? Then if you take the 70-647 it's a slight upgrade to the MCSE? MS wording is a bit confusing! -

No, you need both to be a "2008 MCSE." In MCSE terms, think of the upgrade exam as your core exams (290-294), then the 647 as your design exam (297/29
, and then, of course, 620 is your client exam. CERTS: VCDX #110 / VCAP-DCA #500 (v5 & 4) / VCAP-DCD #10(v5 & 4) / VCP 5 & 4 / EMCISA / MCSE 2003 / MCTS: Vista / CCNA / CCENT / Security+ / Network+ / Project+ / CIW Database Design Specialist, Professional, Associate -

I get it now, cheers for that. So after 649 is complete, it's just MCTS in Server 2008, which I guess would be enough for people to be interested in your skills at this stage of Server 2008. Don't think i'll stress myself out with the full blown Enterprise admin for now, just want to get the 649 out of the way.
