    That is totally up to you. But the order that I took them is:

    I had taken 220 for my design course a while back for my MCSE.
    I had also already had my Security+, so I did not need to take 227
    When the MCSE:Security came out, all I had to take then was 214

    So, I kind of took them as they came. Looking back, If I had a choice..I would have taken 214 close to my Active Directory test. 214 is like and active directory test on steroids..If you have problems w/ active directory, you will have problems with 214.

    Hope this helps some.

    I took 214 last.. also i got my sec+, so i did not need to take 227. But if i could go back, i might take the 227.. Sec+ is a biatch.. and of course i took 220 as my design. the design was a fun test.. a bit difficult, but fun. Ive been kinda outta the scene for ahwhile, working on my college, so it took ahwhile to remember what i did and when. Anyway.. good luck on your tests... Oh.. lemme answer your question.. I agree with Ten, i would take your 214 next.. Its very tough.. get the syngress book for it.. (excellent)
