Little discouraged...but a win is a win.

Most of my exam was all older stuff. But hey, still happy to have it behind me. Very little stuff I studied for was on it.

Study materials:
*This website technotes etc
*Took a class and read the thompson tech. network+ book
*CBT Nuggets
*Testout
*Quickcert
*Preplogic lecture series
*Random assorted stuff online

Congrats. I've been following the map as you pretty much. I will be taking mine on Monday

Most of the stuff on my exam was older. I don't know if it was just the "luck of the draw" or what.

Even the interface I used to take the exam looked like it was ancient. I forget what the copy right date was.

On CompTIA's website it says the following:
The following fulfillment bundles are awaiting address verification:

• Network+ 2002 Kit

2002...are you kidding me? Did I buy an old voucher or what? What the hell is up with that? I thought I bought a voucher for 2007.... damn. That could have cost me the exam easily.

Oh well, I'll take it!

Next up is the A+. How does the A+ compare (in difficulty) to the Network+?

IMO, A+ was not necessarily harder then Net+, just more studying due to the fact you're taking 2 test. To me they were about equal in difficulty. Oh and congrats on the pass.

Congratulations!

Thanks guys! It means a lot.

Can anyone comment on the older part of the exam? I feel like I took an ancient exam. Nothing like I studied for and all of my stuff was for the 2005/2007 objectives.

Here's another clue: My exam was 85 questions and on CompTIA's site it says it should be 90 questions (for the 2007 objectives). I am quite sure that I took an old exam.

I just took the 2007 Edition (N10-003) on 5/28 and passed. And when I went on the CompTIA site to verify my address, it also says Network+ 2002 Kit. So your not the only one. I was wondering also, but the exam I took was 90 questions.

I would second that.

Good work!

In my opinion all CompTIA tests are easy. I took Network+ very first as well, then Security+ and then A+. I didn't study for A+, I passed both tests with an 800. You shouldn't have any headaches passing the exams. Happy studying.
