Missed A+ by a question...what next?
Passed 901 a couple months ago. Moved onto 902 which I felt more comfortable with in general. Turns out I wasn't comfortable enough and got 680/700. So now I'm wondering if I should regroup, get materials for the 1000 series and try yet again...or just move on. By move on, I mean my plan was always to go after Sec+. However, Sec+ is in year 2 and I'm guessing the next generation comes in January 2020. Do I throw away all of my time on the 900 series or is bridging that gap not terribly difficult? Should I just sit and wait 6 months for the next Sec+ to hit?

I feel like I read somewhere before that some companies would consider getting a Sec+ or Net+ as also being A+ certified. Is that true?
Out of curiosity, is there a reason why you want to jump over the Net+ straight to the Sec+? While the Net+ is not a direct requirement, it certainly would give you some background to make the Sec+ much easier.

But now that I have at least 6 months (I'm guessing with 501 being 2 years in), I'm trying to figure out if I should take all the A+ studying I did and try to make it worth while by pursuing 1001-1002 or keep going for Sec+.
I suppose even if I had passed 902 (missed by a single question) that I still would have been in this situation where I'm waiting for the next generation certification to drop.
