Thinking about A+

Doomsday JDoomsday J Member Posts: 43 ■■□□□□□□□□
I anm currently finishing up my assiciates in network technologies. I am Network+ certified and would like to have an A+ to go along with my Net+.
I have only had one hardware class and that was over a year ago. If I bought a book, say the Michael Meyers book, or any other A+ Cert book, got the technotes from this site, did a bunch of tests, is that good enough to pass? OR, should I need to take a class or two? I'd like to be able to just buy a couple of books and study them hard.

Any advicde to incite is greatly appreciated.

    that is definately enough in my opinion. just study hard and take soem practice tests... also some hands on wouldn't hurt either. :)

    the A+ is a fairly easy test... i took mine 5 years ago though, and it has changed since then :)

    atleast you don't have dos questions anymore heh

    You should look at the objectives first. The exam has changed quite a bit since last time revision. I used, and would recco Mike Myers All-In-One guide(5th is the latest). If you feel you fully understand the objectives, and your familiar with todays technologies, maybe you could take it, but at $250 to fail, I'd study first. Just my 3.1451 cents.
    i remain, he who remains to be....

    Thanks for the insite! After I graduate I think I am going to take the iNet, and then start to study A+. I have a school book that is mapped to the 2003 objectives.

    Thanks,
