MCAD/MCSD worth it??
-
Hey people, I was one of the lucky (read extremely lucky) few had a job offer before graduation. I've been working with ASP .NET for about 10 months now and would like to know if an MCAD/MCSD is worth it, both professionally and financially. Ideas?? Suggestions??

It's gotten me into a few interviews that I might not have gotten into otherwise. Not sure it's worth the time and expense though.

Yes it is worth it, not only for financial and career progression, but for the knowledge gained, which of course ebenfits the former. Mine has certainly gotten me in the door and the knowledge and experience gained has kept me there.

The problem that reduces the value of MS ertificates is that many people just memorize the Braindumps and testking etc. then the pass MCAD/MCSD/MCSE in a very short time while they did ont apply the knowledge required to pass the exam. anyway..these Certificates still deserve to think about..But for your own benifit, be honest to yourself and study and apply well before thinking about passing the exam.

It is straight and simple. Get the exams passed (by SOME means), but have your knowledge about development very sharp... Having 10 months of experience is better for that matter try MCAD... if you are still in the learning process after that and your financial status if fine... complete your MCSD. AS far as I know...
MCAD + some exams = MCSDI was born intelligent

It will get you in the door for interview at some companies. Others are not fussed. I did my MCAD last year and I'm upgrading soon (read as soon as I've passed the final exam) to MCSD. I'm doing it the good old fasioned way of studying. And on 4 exams I passed first time... The Solutions Architecture exam I'm finding more difficult. :-O and I failed it the first time round. I will be re-taking it soon though. There are a number of ways to do this. You can get the books and pay for just the exams which is the cheapest way, or you can go on training courses (which is more expensive). If you can get your company to pay for it then that's the best. If you're working for a Microsoft partner then they should jump at the chance to get you qualified.

I wouldn't stop at an MCAD. Get the full MCSD. Its worth it. Its helped open doors for me that would be shut if I didn't have it. I would get the books and spend the extra on the transcender practice tests. They are a huge aid in studying for these tests. Good luck J MCSD C#
