At last, I've just upgraded my MCSD.NET to Microsoft Certified Professional Developer (MCPD).

 

I took the Professional Developer: Enterprise Applications Developer certification path and it only requires 2 exams for the certification upgrade;

Exam 70–553: UPGRADE: MCSD Microsoft .NET Skills to MCPD: Enterprise Application Developer by Using the Microsoft .NET Framework: Part 1
Exam 70–554: UPGRADE: MCSD Microsoft .NET Skills to MCPD: Enterprise Application Developer by Using the Microsoft .NET Framework: Part 2

 

I passed my 70-553 on 29th September 2006 and just passed my 70-554 paper today!!!

 

Thanks to my colleague, firedancer, who pressured and passed me the free exam voucher. She also made it to MCPD as well.
