I just passed my 70-270 - PHEW. I'm on the MCSA path. I have my A+ and Network+ to count as my elective. So, now I need to take the 290 anad 291.

Which one should I take first?

    Good job.

    Take the 290 first as there is a lot of overlap.

    Congrats Cathy. icon_cool.gif

    I recommend 290 first - it's similar to 270 in many ways. The difficulty level increases dramatically on 291.

    Good luck on all your future exams. :)

    i would go 290 also.

    i wouldnt take 291 lightly either, i did and i got punished!

    then quite a few do 293 after 291 because of the overlap again.

    Take 70-290.

    70-270 cover about 40% of the material in 70-290.

    70-291 is a different kettle of fish all together.

    Congrats. And I agree with going for 290 first. Good luck!

    I found the 70-290 easier than I expected. I thought I was going to just scrape by. i did quite well. I found it easier than 70-270.

    I'm yet to do 70-291 so I personally have done this in this order.

    70-291 scares me going by what other people have written in these forums. icon_redface.gif

    Don't be scared...you'll do fine! Yes, I failed it once, but it was due to not preparing correctly and taking it lightly. Just keep your good studying habits that you've had throughout the other exams, and you should be fine :) .
