in Network+
Well guys,

I have studied my azz off for about three months now and have taken all of the Mike Myers certification testing series simulation exams. I usually get about 90% on the simulations so I hope I pass. Wish me luck, I'm taking the exam this Saturday and will post my results in the afternoon.

Regards,

    I used Mike Myers' books for my A+ and my Network+ they helped me pass. I just took my Network+ 2 weeks ago and I was surprised by the amount of security oriented questions. I passed but not by a wide margin. Good Luck

    Yes I agree. I was going to take the exam a couple of years ago which wasn't as security based. This Net+ exam seems a lot more security oriented. I'm going to school for computer security anyway so I guess that is helping me.

    It's 100 questions correct? The Mike Myers simulation tests are only 71 questions....

    Security was definitely one of the topics I didnt feel I was 100% on. But I still passed my Network+ exam.

    The Mike Meyers Passport's LearnKey CD came with 100 questions. I got like 80%, but I know for sure half of what I got wrong wasn't going to be on the exam anyway.

    Sucks to feel that I wasn't 100% on Security, because Security+ is the next exam I will take next.

    First of all I want to say good luck!

    Mine is tomorrow. I studied for about 5 weeks really hard core and feel fairly prepaired.

    Hopefully we both come back with a pass!

    Good luck to you as well N2IT, I hope we both are smiling Saturday. Yeah, most of the testing sites only had one Saturday every month. Fortunately I found a testing site that does Saturdays. Makes sense to me, I don't want to take the test after staring at a monitor for 8 hours. Hopefully just going in after I wake up will give me a nice rest from cramming.

    Let's pass icon_cheers.gif

    Yeah let's pass!

    It's worked out for me this week since I work 3-11 pm. I also get to work from home this week so that adds another bonus.

    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.

    • Operating Cisco routers and LAN switches
    • Ethernet switch configuration and troubleshooting
    • Virtual LANs and Spanning Tree Protocol
    • Wireless LANs
    • IP addressing and subnetting
    • Routing protocols
    • Router configuration and troubleshooting
    • Static and connected routes
    • VLSM and route summarization
    • IP access control lists
    • OSPF and EIGRP configuration
    • WAN configuration and troubleshooting
    • Frame Relay
    • Network Security and VPNs
    • NAT
    • IPv6
    • Troubleshooting
    What are you going to study next N2IT? icon_confused.gif:

    It was funny, when I logged into my CompTia account I found that I was A+ certified already. That was like an extra bonus! One of my first IT classes must have counted toward A+ certification. The odd thing is that I just do not remember what class. You would think the instructor would have said something.

    So I'm A+ and Net+ certified, awesome....

    That is awesome! I am looking at doing A+ now before the end of the year, but for next year I am still uncertain. CCNA would be an awesome next move even the CCENT then the CCNA would be a great move.

    I might be following your lead to be honest.
