in Security+
I was extremely nervous for the exam thanks to Exam Cram's tests that are horrible, riddled with errors, and non-indicative of the real exam. I really discourage the purchasing Exam Cram.

Thanks to David L. Prowse' Cert Guide and Darril Gibson's Get Certified Get Ahead I passed with a score of 852. I felt David and Darril's books were spot on preparing for the exam and highly recommend them both (though David's book went a bit more in depth on some topics).

    I have done 2 of the 4 Cisco Netacademy courses preparing for the CCNA certification, so that will probably be next. I may get my Netwoking+ in the meantime just because it's vendor neutral. After that......who knows? I may decide to move onto programming side of things, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

    Kindle version, yes. PDF version, no, and for good reason.
