Possible to pass security + 90 days
Hi Guys,
Would like to know if it would be possible to pass security + in 90 days and with self study?
Thinking of studying for the exam throughout the summer.

WGU MS:ISA (February 2016 )
I'd like to do CCNA in Sept and am hoping S+ would be a good way of reinforcing and adding to what I leaned in N+
it took me a week to read to read Darryl Gibsons book - get certified get ahead and I passed the exam with 1 question wrong a week later, and I'm terrible at test taking, and I had no experience in security. I have an extreme interest in it so that might have helped but I would say 90 days is very easy.
Good luck!
I like to tackle on the more difficult exams first
Hard work in the beginning. Take a behemoth on and then have the trickle down effect on the network+ exam. I'm not sure why WGU wants N+ and CCNA, makes no sense to me!
Only reason I see to take the CCNA is because it's a prerequisite to CCNA Security, but I think N+ should get knocked out of the equation. Or maybe because CCNA is so Cisco oriented they wanted something vendor neutral.
Bah, oh well.
Best of Luck,

Darril Gibson's book is a very good reference, and I used it. CBT nuggets, as well. I would say that at even before the 30 day mark you would be telling yourself to go ahead and take the exam and not wait 90 days because you'd be ready...easily.

However, if your goal is CCNA, it might be better to simply jump into the CCENT now and do the Sec+ after. Coming straight from the Net+ to the CCENT would help a lot better from overlap than Sec+ to CCENT.
