    You don't need on the job experience, but it will certainly help. That said however, if you know the technology, then you shouldn't have any problems. Perhaps buy the MS Press book for the exam you are thinking about and test your readiness using the free practice tests on the cd at the back.

    Here is some information about .net exams http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/certification/cert-vstudio.aspx

    MCP, MCDST, MCTS x 4, MCITP x 2
