Planning for MCITP Virtualization Administrator

Question
-
Hi all,
I am currently working towards Windows 7 Enterprise Administrator and once I complete this (just the 70-686 to go) my goal is to get the MCITP in Virtualization Administrator.
My question is tho, is it more worthwhile to get the MCITP in Windows Server Administrator first? Can you go straight for the Virtualization before getting the windows server exams.
I am currently working through this myself and not working in the industry, so using home lab that I have setup as well as the microsoft press books.

Hi,
As far as I know, you need to pass 70-669 Exam, 70-693 Exam and either 70-659 or 70-652 Exam to get MCITP Virtualization Administrator on Windows Server 2008 R2 certification. So, it is not required to get MCITP Server Administrator Certification first, you can go directly for MCITP Virtualization Administrator. You may visit this link to get more details:

Looks like this question got overlooked. Do you still require assistance?

I have never gotten a response to this and am still wondering the best route to take.
I have put getting the 70-686 on temp hold due to starting a new job and working 24/7 atm
