Hey everyone!

My best advice is to use the Professor Messer videos and enjoy. Probably the most fun cert I have done to date! -

I used labsim through WGU, which was good but not worth paying the price. I'd stay away from the Network+ exam cram book, it doesn't give you enough info for the test. The test was recently upgraded so not a lot of reference material out on it. I found this one to be the most difficult of the comptia tests I've taken, came close to not passing the first time. Good luck on it!

I have a small question: would it be useful to use the CCENT/CCNA Cert Guides by Wendell Odom to study for the N+?Seeking a career change from International Development to Network Engineering

I would say no. There's stuff that is in the N+ that is not covered in the CCNA. -

Thanks for the response. I've been thinking whether to take the N+ first and then the CCENT. I figure I should focus taking the CCENT exam and read about N+ to get even more familiar with networking.Seeking a career change from International Development to Network Engineering

Looking forward to your passed post! BTW, are you crunching to get the 05 or are you going for the 06? -

Not to hijack, but that options doesn't have any way for me to select something different. I'm a noob. -

Going for the 06. Figured there wasn't any point in cramming for a soon to be outdated test.
