Might have been answered but I will ask anyway
Alright here we go,
1. Which book would everyone recommend to study for the A+ cert? Both tests.
2. How much time have ya'll spent on getting ready to pass the test, my wife asked this question, since I am taking 6 hours at college and working 40 hours a week right now.
3. Any other resources you all would recommend?
Appreciate the help.

The practice Exams on this site.
You could be ready inside of a month if your aggresive or 2 if you only spend a little bit of time
Definitly get as much hands on as you possibly can, it helps.
WGU Progress: B.S. Network Management & Design <- I quit (got bored)
2. I read each chapter and wrote out notes as I read (for retention purposes). I then reread my notes once. It took me roughly 3 weeks of 1-2 hours per day (skipping weekends).
3. Not really a resource, but follow along with Mike as he uses commands in cmd, etc. Thats how you will get the most retention, as well as prepare you for future certifications, where commands, processes, and executions are highly important (Cisco, Microsoft, etc.) .
I like Transcender, but I did A+ using entirely free practice exams and a $30 ExamCram book. In fact, I think it was how I find TechExams in the first place. I just don't think practice exams are worth it for A+. If you really have the money to blow and want to get it done, fine, but I was happy to have saved the money.

This is embarrassing but it took me prolly 6 months to get A+, studying on and off. I even made a thread about it Lol!

Looking back, i think I overstudied for the A+.. my advice is to just book the exam a month from now, so u can move on to bigger things
best of luck!
