in A+
Hello everyone. Long time lurker here.
I needed to pass the A+ exam for part of my WGU degree (IT Bus Mgmt), so I took it Friday after about a month of off and on study. It really took me awhile to get into the groove to study for this, because I am NOT interested in hardware or PC building, et cetera. I am the ISO for a large health company and do security assessments and other "auditing" for vulnerabilities, along with being prior military for 10 years and working at other large orgs. My point? I couldn't get into "wanting" to learn again the pins of RAM, and other things, but I had to buckle down and get it done.
I used ExamCram, and Darril Gibson's book, and ExamCompass. Most of the material was pretty much covered by these. Some Quizlet's were helpful as well. Anyway, done! Thanks for the info and help here!
