Need some advice
Hi everyone,
I have been browsing these forum for awhile but have never posted before. I started in IT about 9 months ago and I am working in help desk right now and is a good start after graduated and recieving an AS in IT. Right now I am studying for the Net+ and I am using the network+ cbt nuggets videos and some practice test N10-004 I was given. To fully prepare myself, is there any other tips you could share with me to help me become 100% prepared. This will be my first cert to ever take and is a requirement from my employer, but I have been wanting to get certified in the networking areas for awhile now.
Thank you

I'd agree with jbimler that it would be a good idea to get a book as a study source. Also, when using practice test questions, make sure they have explanations. If not, you may end up memorizing incorrect information without knowing it.
When do you plan on taking the exam? There is certainly time to take it before Aug 31, but you it's important to realize that the N10-004 exam will be retired on Aug 31, 2012. After that date, you can only take the N10-005 exam.
Good luck. -

Is there any practice exams you can recommend for me with explanations? The CBT nuggets is good for me as I am a visual learner and I can't read material and understand it fully.

SharkDiver Member Posts: 844I used CertBlaster for my Net+. I don't know if they are still around. If they are, their practice exams were really good.
I also read the Exam Cram book and the Mike Meyers books. -

I am biased, but this Kindle eBook includes 275 realistic practice test questions with in-depth explanations for only $9.99: CompTIA Network+ N10-005 Practice Test Questions (Get Certified Get Ahead). -
