Hello all,
Bit of a background, I have a BS in Informaiton Systems and about 5 years of Systems Admin experience using Windows 2000/XP/2008, VMWare and Windows 7, also some basic networking, routing, DNS, hardware experience. I don't have any certifications.
My goal is to get an MCITP: EA and a VMWare certification and work as a Systems Administrator installing and configuring virtual and physical infrastructures as well as overseeing migration.
Where should I start? I am thinking I should start with the following tests
Exam 70-640 Active Directory
Exam 70-642 Networking
Exam 70-680 Windows 7
These seem to be fundamental skills I need ASAP and they apply towards my final goal, MCITP:EA. Which of these three would you recommend taking first? I have heard people say "I wish I have taken exam X before taking exam Y", this is what I am looking for. Perhaps another test should be my starting point?
Thanks in advance.
I posted the same question in the 70-640 and 70-680 forums, I hope that's ok.
