in A+
Took the A+ Essentials today and scored an 825! Just have to take the other half tomorrow afternoon. All in all I was impressed by the non-archaic questions asked. It seems to be up to date with the current technologies.

    Awesome score! The 702 is just a little tougher but with an 896 on the 701, you should have no trouble...

    Congrats on the pass!!! What study methods and materials did you use to pass the exam? I have been using one of your methods of writing down the questions you get wrong on a note card, and writing the answer on the back. I will be taking my 701 on April 19th.
    Here is what I have been doing:
    Read most of the Sybex A+ complete advice
    And I’m still reading the Exam Cram.
    Making note cards and answer questions off the A+ exam cram study guide.
    Went through the exam cram test and wrote down all the questions I got wrong, and repeated the test until I got 90%..this seemed to help
    • Currently I have been watching testout A+701 videos and I am going through the 303 Measureup questions for the 701, and I write down the ones I get wrong, and review them. Also I take notes while watching the testout videos.
    I’m asking for your advice, because you always do well on your exams, and get a higher than passing score. Also, you’re in college like me, so you know that it can be difficult to study for certifications while in college.
    Thanks in advance for your advice

    That is the method I have been using. I am sure you will do fine on the exam. It's really not that bad.

    Oops, sorry about the misquoted score. 825 is still awesome.

    I thought the 702 was a little more in depth, but still not difficult. In hindsight, I would have gone over the differences between XP and Vista a little more..

    Actually that was my fault...

    Yeah, I don't even use Vista so that frustrates me just a little...

    Well the A+ has now been captured. I scored an 805 which wasn't as high I hoped for. Oh well, a pass is still a pass as they say!

    Well done. I took both of these today and thankfully passed :) Found certain things in the practical (702) test a bit harder and my score reflected as such from the 701 test. Still happy with the pass. Now, on to 70-291 or Security+... think I'll decide tomorrow :D
