Knocked 802, officially A+ certified!
Yes, I'm done with A+! I was excited to see a score of 825. I studied A LOT as many said it was a tougher exam than 801. Used Sybex as main source, bought CertMaster, skimmed ExamCram guide and also did all 4 Cram exams. Did tonnes of other practice questions (Pearson, Sybex exam engine); usually scoring 80-85%! I studied…

Passed my 802, I'm A+ Certified!
Got a 771. A bit disappointed, considering I got an 860 on my 801. Was a much harder test for me though, especially the Sims. I guess all that matters is that I'm certified! Thanks everyone! Is a 771 a decent score? I guess it doesn't matter, haha.

Passed my 801 last week, taking my 802 tomorrow..
Passed my 801 last week with a score of 860, very proud of that. Also very nervous about taking my 802 tomorrow, but at least now I have the feel for taking an exam in a real test taking environment. My professor says that his students usually score about 75 points lower on the 802 than the 801. I've been studying a lot,…

Archive bit, how and why?
My experience with backup is very weak, non-existent. I'm thrown off by incremental/ differential backups, especially when 'archive bit' is mentioned. I know their definitions, but can someone put it in layman's terms or suggest a software that I can practice?

Annoying thing about A+ books
I've completed my prep for A+ and after reviewing multiple books, I discovered how some books mix 801 and 802. This I found annoying! Only Sybex and another author separate them and you follow a concise format broken down by exam objectives. So good job Sybex!

Finally certified..
Not one to typically toot my own horn, but I passed my 802 yesterday after passing the 801 back in October. Story time.... I got a job in IT because my company hired a third party to do our copy centers (my position at the time). They didn't want to let me go, so they took a chance and put me in IT. 4 years later my…
