    Hi,

    There are 2 options for you:

    1. Give 70-536 followed by 70-528(.net 2.0 Web App)
    2. Give 70-536 followed by 70-562(.net 3.5 Framework)

    In each case you shall have to give 70-536 exam first... This will make you eligible for the next exam.

    My suggestion is to go for 70-562 as it refers to a newer framework.

    For exam location, try contacting your local NIIT center for this info...

    Hi,

    You shall need to go thru this exam by exam ... as clearing 70-536 will only determine whether you are allowed to give the next exam (70-562 or 70-528)

    There are self-paced study kits available for each of the exams I have mentioned.. eg. The kit for 70-562 exam is titled "MCTS 70-562 Self Paced Training Kit" .... same for all the exams .... In simple terms, each of these training kits have a book of about 1000 pages and a CD that comes with:
    i. practice tests / questions for the exam
    ii. pdf version of the book itself

    These kits are good enough material to clear the exams... Howerver, if reqd, you might also refer to online resources for preparation

    NOTE: The kits, although comprises very good & to-the-point material, contain a few typos here and there... So do keep an open mind and try out anything (code / refer MSDN online) that u feel as possibly incorrect

    Also, there are online sample test providers like testking, etc.... but I cannot comment on them as I havent tried them... The kits were enough for me...

    'Hope this helps..
