From MCSA 2000 to MCSE 2003

Hi All,

I just have a quick question regarding the path from MCSA 2000 to MCSE 2003

I was all ways under the impression that 4 exams were required to go from an
MCSA to MCSE. I was an MCSA on 2000 and recently passed 70-292 making me MCSA
2003. I was looking to upgrade this to MCSE 2003 expecting another 4 exams,
but according to the MS cert site it states an MCSA counts as an elective, so
if i have got it correct I only need 2 core networking and a core design,
totalling 3 exams. Have I got the correct idea or am i miles off,

Of course after finishing 2003 cert i will be moving to 2008

cheers for any advice.

Yes, MCSA 2000 counts as a valid elective for MCSE 2003 because it
demonstrates the ability to support another version of the platform.
