Time between 901 and 902?

Hi TechExams.net A+,

I am considering taking the A+ exam, and have the Prowse Exam Cram book and practice questions. I think that the 901 will be easier since its hardware, and I have experience working with hardware. However, how long can I wait until I know I'm ready to take the 902, after I pass the 901? Is there a time limit?

will i still be able to take the 902 after july, if I took the 901 before that?

Hoping to get my Certification and my foot in the door to a computer job!

As Skyliinez92 said, once it is retired you will not be able to take the exam(s). You have plenty of time to take both before they retire. Also, keep in mind that you cannot mix exams (901 & 1002 or 1001 & 902). Honestly, depending on how much time you can devote to studying, you should be able to knock it out by Christmas.
