I took the 601/602 and passed. I did it right in the transistion so my college courses were still teaching the old version. From what I studied compared to what I took, the new ones are easier and harder. They are easier in that they cover the basics of their domains and harder in that they raised the bar as far as score goes. The old one I think used to be 515/505 I believe and new ones minimum are 675/700. But I found that the new ones questions were much easier.

Hello all,

I wish to take the A+ exam. Is it to late for me to take the 220-601 & 220-602 exams ?

Was reading the old exams are 220-301 & 220-302. I did not know if NEW exams came out as of yet.


Thanks.

Joe

or the Mike Meyers 6th edition

I'm leaning more towards the Comptia, but don't know yet. Any suggestions?
