Hi everyone, I am planning on taking the route to MCITP (Server Administrator) and i need some help from you guys who have more experience on this. I would appreciate it if someone can give me some feedback.
I am planning on taking the courses- 70-640, 642 and 646.
The courses are quite expensive if taken via a formal training/school. So i was thinking of studying on my own and i was wondering if this is a good idea. To give you guys a little more information about my IT background, I have the Comptia A+ and the Network+ certifications and have about 6 years of experience in the IT field (in desktop and help desk roles). I have NOT worked on servers that much (i would say i have limited knowledge of servers, patch deployments etc. I have also worked in Active Directory (a lot of password resets and a bit of add/moves/changes) but again, i would say limited knowledge.
My plan is to first do the 640 exam on Active Directory on my own and then do the other 2. I would like to know if studying on my own with the limited knowledge i have on Windows Servers and active directory is a good idea or should i go to school/training for it. Please help!
