    Well chuffed with myself! passed with a score of 925, been studying for 2 months and it really paid off test seemed easy!

    Got to try and find a helpdesk /support role job now fingers crossed.

    Trying to decide what to do next MCSA/MCSE/CCENT or do a Active directory exam to help get myself a job.

    I know its upto you and were you want to go in IT but whats been the next step after MCDST?

    cheers

    I would probably advise to get a job first or maybe start with the 270.

    What is your work expierence, as going any further could harm your prospects?

    Getting a job and building experience for a while. Being overcertified for your experience level is a bad thing. I'd recommend holding off on the MCSA/MCSE until you've got at least 6 months of server admin experience... and holding off on the CCENT until you're starting to admin real-world Cisco routers.
