I'm taking the SQL Exam this coming Wednesday, I've been studying BOL, and the book "Professional SQL Server 2000 Programming" by Robert Vieira, and "Inside SQL Server 2000" by Kalen Delaney and also using the Transcender practice exams.

Hopefully I will pass the SQL Design exam and then onto the "Web Services" exam and finally the Developing Web Applications with C# exam, I have MOC books which I plan to use for preparing for the above mentioned exams.

The amount of time it takes depends on the amount of time you have to spend preparing before you sit the exam.
Depending on your experience with the parts of the exams you are preparing for, on average I would at least give yourself 2 weeks minimum to prepare for any MS Exam although opinions may vary.

I have a BS Degree in Aeronautics, I also hold the Windows NT MCSE Cert, combined with the cert's I've managed to stay employed. There is a definate advantage to having a degree in todays job market, however I know IT folks who don't have a degree and make more money than a lot of the others. I also must add, experience on the job is key, but if you are new, you will have to start out as a green horn but you have to start somewhere.

The MCAD Cert is relativly new, I'm not sure how it is looked upon by IT Managers.
