    Congrats Jack on your score!

    I'm using LabSim to prepare for the Network+. Does anyone have any feedback as to using LabSim for preparation? Also, are there any practice exams that actually mirror the certification exam? I have tried practice exams from different sites and some of them are similar to LabSim practice exams and others are not. I did take the practice exam from CompTia....is it a correct mirror of the test?

    The practice exam and the review questions from LabSim are way harder than CompTIA exams (Network+ or Security+). If you have tried free tests from several sites or books and have passing score, you don't need to worry.

    I found the practice exam from CompTIA just a bit more harder than the actual.

    If you are using all of LabSim --not just the exams or questions -- for Network+ and a book, you probably have way more than you need to pass. Remember, the topics and objectives for Network+ may seem vast, but the level of exam difficulty isn't.

    Thanks for the reply. I'm currently enrolled at a local technical college and my instructor has just started using LabSim. I have a Network book that I had to buy for the class but we have not used the book at all.

    I plan to study for about two more weeks and then take the test. I have the Security+ LabSim and completed all modules but did not take the exam.

    I guess I'm being too fearful of the exams.

    Most technical colleges use the Course Technology/Cengage books. I am guessing you probably use Mark Ciampa's Security+ book and Tamara Dean's Network+ Guide book. I used the above books and also other books (Mike Meyers', Sybex, etc.) for some chapters.

    If you are getting 80%+ on end of chapter questions, you probably are prepared for the exams. With two weeks of extensive study, you will be definitely well prepared.

    You can also check out some free practice tests online:

    Practice Tests -questions: CCNA, A+ Certification, Network+, CCNP; MCSE examcram and practice exams. CCENT, Server+, CIW, and others.

    Good luck.
