Hi guys, I passed 701 on Saturday, August 25. Today I passed 702.

For 701 I used only Professor Messer's videos. For 702 I used LabSim from WGU and the skillsoft test prep software. LabSim took about 5 days to go through (2-4 hours a night) and then the rest was just review. Have about 6 years of IT experience.

Best of luck to everyone else going after the A+.

    Funny you mention that, Ivanjam. I am currently enrolled at WGU. My first term started July 1, 2012. So far I have completed WFV1, BBC1, CLC1, LAE1, AGC1, AXV1 and CPV1. I still need to finish CVV1 before the end of my term. I may add a few more classes before my new term starts in January. My CCNA and Security+ transfered in and satisfied CRV1, CTV1, CWV1 and DEV1.

    I am planning to do the MS:ISA at WGU when I finish the BS: IT

    ... For 702 I used LabSim from WGU...

    Had I read your post thoroughly, I would not have asked such a silly question... well, I got a referral to WGU from you so it all turned out fine :)
