help decide on which certification path to follow!!

[comp110]

I have already obtained my A+ and N+ Certification and I would like to work as an Network Administrator.
I'd like to hear anyone's advice on the different test out there; should I go for the 70-210, 70-215 and 70-218 and complete the MCSE2000 certification?

are they necessary to start with?.

Or should I start preparing myself for the 70-270, 70-290, 70-291,70-293, 70-294, 70-299, 70-298?

the short answer is, "it depends".

the longer answer depends on your age (sadly), the area you want to work in (be flexible), the type of career planning you have done and are willing to do (involve people you trust and respect like spouse, parents, employers)... just remember that "more time spent planning than implementing" is a "best practice" in just about every area of life...

I think going the MCSE 2000 + upgrade would be the most useful (i.e., you would in effect be a dual MCSE)... but if that may not fit your circumstances, planning, or budget...

I guess the long answer is "it depends", too...
