    This may seem a really stupid question, but as I dont know the answer, I have to find ask it. From all the exam centres I have seen, they make out as if you have to study the whole thing with them to be able to study the exam. also, which cert is better, MCSD or MCAD? How long would it take to complete this? And, if anyone is in the UK, do you know of testing centres where you can just pay to write the exam?

      You have to be MCAD before you can be MCSD.NET. The requirements for MCAD are the same for MCSD.NET with the addition of 2 more tests for MCSD.NET. Most people I know attempt MCAD(3 tests) then finish up the last 2 tests for MCSD (5 tests). Got to Prometric [Prometric] or http://www.vue.com/[Vue] to find a testing center near you. Taking a class is not a prerequisite for taking a test. You can still attempt the Visual Studio 6 MCSD too. It is only 4 tests but with .NET fewer and fewer people seem to be interested. I'm not sure if anything I've said helps. Let me know if you have more questions.
