Net+ & A+ Certs

in Network+
HELLLLLP!! I have failed the Net+ exam twice. I used exam cram and a Sybex book. I also utilized serveral practice tests. I can't understand what my problem is. I have spent several hundred dollars on study materials but I still come up short. I have been reading several of the posts to try to get some pointers but I am considering taking the two A+ tests because I can't seem to pass Net+. I have been in the business for about 20 years and understand some of the concepts, obviously not the rights ones. Any ideas?

Read just the Meyers N+ book, highlight, and make detailed flash cards and you will pass.
You can also go to http://www.techweb.com/encyclopedia
to supplement what you read.
hatchell14, dont give up just yet. Reflect your study strategy, where do you think it went wrong? Have you looked at the technotes here:

I am using those, the Meyers Certification Passport for Network+, and Data Communications & network by Mcgraw hill, it was my textbook for Intro to Networking & Data Comm.

Let me know, and perhaps we can study together and get certified.
I wish I had your certs already, I am studying for the 291 now.

I was only getting 70s and 80s on my practice tests and now I see that was not good enough. I have since downloaded the objectives. Thanks for the quick response and also I just ordered Mike Meyers AIO.
I have just looked at the technotes and have purchased Mike Meyers book. I will not give up because my goal is to have Net+ & A+ before I go to the middle east to support the "War on Terror"!
Keep studying!
you're in the US forces?
If your still not having much like, like myself at this point then i'd suggest trying e-learning.
i went with www.learnitonline.co.uk they did a really good deal for me.
I hope this helps
