    I have been studying for both 70-536 and 70-528 exams since 3 months and I want to take the exams now. Can I take both 70-536 and 70-528 exams on the same day ? or is there any particular time interval that I need to wait after writing the first exam?

    And more question I have is that do I get the "MCP" title if I clear both of these exams ?

    There is nothing in the Exam rules against it, so you can take the two exams on the same day,
    (if the Exam location has room in their schedule)
    but if you never took a Microsoft exam before I wouldn't recommend it.

    Microsoft in general doesn't require you take exams in any particular order to get certified,
    but you only get certified if you passed all exams required for the certification of your choice.

    If you become a MCTS, you become a MCP equivalent.

    Thanks for your guidance Rob.

    I just asked this as I was told by somebody that I need to wait for at least 15 days after 70-536, before I go for the next 70-528 exam .

    So, as per your answer, I think its better for me to take the 70-536 exam first and then go for 70-528 after one week or so........

    in my opinion ,you'd better firstly contact the prometric .If the prometric doesnot think  you can  sit both exams on the same day ,you could not .
    Because ,few of candidates sit the exams on the same day .some of advice is just for reference.
