Passed Today.
I got a 900.
I mostly used the Sybex book, the Technotes PDF (really helpful
), glanced a bit at the TestOut course, and setup a few home networks to get more practice.If you're going to be taking the test soon: know the OSI Model, the various troubleshooting utilities and the protocols (TCP/IP based, security, and remote).
Didn't have much on ports & cable lengths but of course your exam will vary.
Just know the objectives and you'll do fine.
Now, I'm going to be taking a slight break & then come back to get the MCP leading into the MCSE.

I thought about CCNA but I want to go the Microsoft path first & see where that takes me.
BTW, for those that use the Sybex book as I did don't bother w/ the test on the CD-ROM. Those questions were poorly written & really do not reflect the actual Network+ test.
The questions in the book, on the other hand, do so use them. -

Do you mean the practice exams on the cd-rom? I've been trying some of the practice exams and they look and feel like they were written by someone who had nothing to do with the book. I think quite a few of the questions on the practice exams were off too. I'm going to be taking my test on the first week of july and I don't want to waste my time on study material that isn't worth it. -

Impressive score with the Network+! Congratulations. From Security+ book by Sybex:

Great job on the exam."A lot of fellows nowadays have a B.A., M.D., or Ph.D. Unfortunately, they don't have a J.O.B."

Yes. The questions in the book are great & really reflect the material but the CD is just horrendous.
It was definitely done by someone else. If you're on a budget and can't get any more practice questions besides the one's in the book then just head on down to Barnes & Noble. Bring pen & paper w/ you & do the questions from some of the other Network+ books they have.
Oh and take the practice test from this site:
