  Hi Ramesh,

  I assume you are going for the MCSE on Data Management and Analytics?

  To become a MCSE on Data Management and Analytics you will need do have one of the following MCSAs + 1 MCSE exam(which in this case you already have):

  • MCSA: SQL Server 2012/2014
  • MCSA: SQL 2016 Database Administration
  • MCSA: SQL 2016 Database Development
  • MCSA: SQL 2016 BI Development
  • MCSA: Machine Learning
  • MCSA: BI Reporting
  • MCSA: Data Engineering with Azure

  Go here to review the requirements: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/mcse-data-management-analytics.aspx

  Or check your Certification Planner here: https://mycertificationplanner.one.microsoft.com/

  Hi, 
  For the MCSA: SQL Server 2012/2014 you will need to pass all of those exams: 70-461, 70-462 and 70-463.(So you will need to pass 3 exams to become a MCSE)
  For the MCSA: SQL 2016 Database Administration its 70-764 and 70-765.(Here you need pass 2 exams to become a MCSE)
  
  You might want to check your certification planner, it will tell you all the paths/exams you can take to achieve the MCSE. Other exams may qualify for a shorter path.

  MCSAs are in general two or three exams and you don't need to have a lower level certification to get it.
  MCSE is one exam but they require a specific MCSA.
