70-620 is extremely simple, it won't get you any jobs though.
You need to do more to get an MCITP, either server or enterprise, the other exams aren't quite so easy though and you need to know quite a bit about windows server and networks, active directory, exhange etc.

My advice is, every man and his dog wants to work in IT. Choose a different career path IMO. I did.

There are 2 versions of the MCITP, equal to MCSA and MCSE.
The first one is to do with running the networks day to day, the harder one is more to do with designing them.
What you've done in college won't even be close to what you need to know to get them though.

thats why i was going to start of with the MCTS which is basicly just installing vista and setting up ect.
and then build on to that

I have the 70-620, if I didn't need it for the MCITP enterprise I probably wouldn't have bothered.
If you've used vista at all it should be easy though, 4 hour exam, took me about half an hour.
