I am interested in getting the opinions of the Win2K MCSE's out there regarding the toughest of the core and design exams. I am considering taking a course for one of them, but don't want to waste the class on easy stuff. I have been working with Win2K ever since it came out and self-studied for my NT MCSE, so I am reluctant to take classes if they are not needed. We have yet to migrate to AD, so I am considering focusing on that. Thanks for any advice.

It probably depends on what your strenghts are in the W2K scenario. I found the core exam 216 (network infrastructure) to be the toughest in the core exam elements. Of the electives I found 220 (desiging security)to be tough as I had very limited experience with security at the time. Those exams have also been expressed to myself from other Admins as the tougher ones they faced also.

Anyway, of the core 4 MCSA exams, 216 and 217 are the most difficult, in the sense that they're the ones you have to know more for, but they're all relatively light if you understand the topics.

Start out reading and see how far you can get!

Since you haven't migrated to AD, I would recommend 70-219, which is the AD Design test. It isn't the toughest, but probably the most useful.
