    Hello,

    I have two questions for you and I'd love to get some answers.

    I'm currently achieving my "MCITP: Server Administrator on Windows Server 2008" by taking the following exams:

    Exam 70-640
    Exam 70-642
    Exam 70-646
    Exam 70-680
    Exam 70-662

    Now, If I got this right, if I want to achieve "MCITP: Enterprise Administrator on Windows Server 2008", I should "drop" the 70-646 and instead take the 70-643 and 70-647. Is that correct? If so, do you think I should do it? I can't seem to make what is the essential difference between MCITP Server Administrator and Enterprise Administrator. Other than the fact of the understandable "Enterprise" level.

    My second question to you is: Is there an upgrade path to the MCSA 2012 from the Server Administrator? How about the Enterprise Administrator? If so, which exam(s) do I need to take corresponding to each level of certification?

    Thank you in advance!

    Daniel,

    I'm in the same situation as you. I'm looking forward to getting MCITP EA by upgrade from SA. I found this about upgrading from MCITP SA to EA that confirm my last post.

    For IT professionals currently holding a MCITP: Server Administrator Certification, you will need to pass the following Microsoft exams to acquire your MCITP: Enterprise Administrator Certification:

    • 70-680: TS: Windows 7, Configuring
    • 70-643: TS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure, Configuring
    • 70-647: PRO: Windows Server 2008, Enterprise Administraton

    70-647 seems to be like 70-646 but more harder and with enterprise focus. 

    So in your case U only need to pass 70-643 and 70-647.

    Good luck.
