Path to MCSE 2003

NemelizaNemeliza Member Posts: 2 ■□□□□□□□□□
im planning to take on the MCSE in the upsomming months. i was thinking about it and is it better for me to do a MCSE 2000 FIRST then do the upgrade, or should i just jump in at 2003.

it does look 'nicer' on a CV in my oppinion to have 2000/2003 compared to just 2003 but i dont know if there is any implications in doing the upgrade path as opposed to the direct path.

All oppinions welcom.

Thanks
Nem.

    There are no implications to doing the upgrade. I would actually recco going that route. I would rather have both on my resume/cv. Besides, most companies are still using 2000 right now.
    i remain, he who remains to be....

    I'm currently going for MCSA 2003 at the minute, studying for 70-290 exam just now.

    My work use a mixture of NT/2000 and 2003 servers - any new servers we create are always 2003. I dont expect to finish my MCSA until the end of next year, by which point I expect most companies will be up to 2003 standard. But even if they aren't then its not exactly a massive change coming from working on 2003 servers to 2000 servers.

    I had to make exactly the same decision recently,
    I'm doing the 2003 Server route without any knowledge of 2000.
    Just started on 70 290 this week
