hi. sorry about my english.
I am currently doing my post graduation, and I do not have any work experience. I liked to take a certification on windows 7. I found MCTS 72-680 test could be taken by a student. But I didn't find any exam representing 72-680 in http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/exam.aspx/ .
Also i found MCTS 70-680, where atleast one year work experience is needed to take the exam.
And this would be my first certification exam(if eligible for it).
So , what i want to know is,
Is there any test MCTS 72-680? and Am I eligible for it ,though I had no work experience ? If eligible , please give me some info on , contents to prepare for the exam, and the procedure on , how to apply for the test? are there any pre-requisite tests to be taken to attend to 72-680 test

In my experience, the only differences between a 70-series test and a 72-series test are that you need to bring a valid, current student ID with you to the testing center to prove you're in school and the price for the 72-series is lower. Other than that, the exam is exactly the same, the procedure to sign up is the same, and the exam experience is the same. You are able to use the same study materials - books, videos, labs, etc. - for the student version of the exam since the questions aren't different, as far as I know.
Go to Prometric.com, sign up for the 72-680 exam, make sure you bring a student ID card with you on test-day, and you should be fine.

I've never been asked for a student ID when I take a 72 exam. Registering for the exam with a .edu email address seems to be enough. -

Not sure about the student bit though the one years experience is not a requirement but a recomendation. So go for it and good luck

at least the 72-680 are normals exams
no requirements
You just need to be enrolled in a University and I think you need a .edu email (not sure)
Just take your ID to the test center when you go take the exam
the 72 exams are the same as the 70s onesmeh
