Am I on the right track?

I have completed MCSE 70-290, and I am planning to finish these specific
tests in the following order:
70-291
70-270
70-284

70-293
70-294


Can anybody tell me if by completing all these tests I will be able to
obtain the MCSE certificate? I just want to make sure so I won't take the
wrong tests.

I also want to verify how Microsoft keep track of my academy goal. I know I
have a Microsoft transcript, but I am not sure how Microsoft determine when
to issue my certificates. As you see from the above tests list, if I take
the tests in such order, I am going to qualify for a MCSA first, then after I
pass the last two tests I will get MCSE. Is it right that after I pass
70-284, my Microsoft will automaticall send me a congulation email telling I
have obtained MCSA certificate? More specifically, do I need to declare to
Microsoft right now that I am planning on MCSA or MCSE? (just like I did in
school to declare my major).

Thank you for your help and comments!

you need one more elective.
