Hi,

I'm a little bit confuse about my MCSA 2003 to MCITP SA. I talked to Microsoft Education Center and they told me that I need to complete 70-64-, 70-642 and 70-646 to get my MCITP SA. But I already passed four exams which is 70-290, 70-291, 70-620 and 70-236 which is a complete MCSA 2003.

Can I take 70-648 and 70-646 to get my MCITP SA?

Thanks Charles. I understand that MCITP will be remove next year July. Is it recommended to take MCSA: Windows 2008? What are the courses I have to take to upgrade my MCSA 2003 to MCSA 2008?

Thanks Wharty. May I know whay many training centre are offering 70-640, 70-642 and 70-646 instead of 70-648 and 70-646? Since 70-648 and 70-646 only cost 2 exam to get MCSA 2008.

Because 70-648 and 70-646 are only available to people who have completed their MCSE 2003. If you haven't done MCSE 2003, sitting exams 70-648 and 70-646 will not give you MCSA 2008.
