CompTIA Trade PROGRAM?

HEY~

Thank you for your time.

Simple question, I have CompTIA A+ and CompTIA Network+ already and I may be getting Security+ by the end of this week.

I have roughly heard these can go toward your MCSA or other microsoft certification. I heard your CompTIA A+ PLUS Net+ = EXAM 70-217.

Well I was going to take 70-270 exam to get my MCP. I only want MCP for right now and maybe more later....But the question is, what is the smartest way to, and if, I can apply my certifications I have toward a MCP? Hope this makes sense.

Also, I heard MCDST was going away, but would anyone give some advice if I should take the 70-270 or the 70-271+70-272? Which ones are more difficult?

I am just trying to plan the right path and if someone could take 5 mins and inform me of what they did or what the Wished they did...that would be awesome!

MCDST is not going anywhere, it was just released. It is also used as an elective towards MCSA. Alternativly, you can use your Comptia A+ / Net+ as an elective for MCSA, but not MCSE. Sec+ counts as an elective for both. You can get Comptia credit for M$ certs here. By doing this, you would NOT have the MCP status. You need to actually pass a M$ exam to receive MCP.
