Certification expiry problem

[mtajim]

I did my MCP in May 2003 and it is said that my MCP certification will expire in 3 years which means it will expire in May 2006. Now, my problem is that i want to complete my full MCSE certification but i heard that u have to complete your MCSE before your MCP certification expires else u have to start from scratch. Is this true ? Till today i have given 2 papers of MCSE and i dont want to give them again. So, what will be right for me -- to give exams now or let it go because my certification will expire in May 2006 (next month).

well.. you can at least try and go ask 'reputable authority'..

if they really do require the completion of your MCSE before renewing your MCP (as what most companies require) might as well push through it..
