    Hi all!

    I'm about to begin studying towards my MCSA, the first module being "Windows 7 Configuration". I went down the CompTIA A+ and N+ route and I completed both of those in roughly 3 months per course. Am I looking at a similar time frame for each remaining module with the MCSA or is the study time shorter? How long would it take, roughly, to complete the 3 remaining modules?

    Many thanks.

    Would you not be better going the MCITP route?

    Ya, probably, but I've already signed up and paid to do the MCSA. Besides, dont some of the modules in the MCSA count towards the MCITP if I chose to go for it later on?

    If it took you three months to do the N+ and A+ each, I'd say six months per MCSA exam would be a fair assessment.

    2000 exams expired. 2003 is gone this year or next. I think its a ten year life cycle.
