What resources are you using?

Meyers and Sybex books cover this material. Also our PDF has it too!

The only thing you need to watch out for is the inconsistency of some different study materials (all reputable). One might tell you one thing while another will say something complete different, I noticed this mainly with cable specs. Not too sure how to get around that.

I used the Sybex book and the TechExams pdf and I passed the first time. Both of these resources covered the material very well. In fact, the Sybex book has a very well organized table that lists all of the cable lengths, specs, and applications very clearly.

Also, I bought my test voucher from totalsem.com (Meyers site) and it included 10x100 question practice exams. Some of the questions were outdated, but most of it was relevant. I credit those practice exams for at least making me go back and study the areas I wasn't aware that I had problems on.

Hope this helps!
