Are you going into Networking with experience or some other type of formal education. You graduated may mean you have you cullinary arts degree :P

I'm going to assume you got you're degree in Networking or Information Technology with a concentration in Networking. Don't make your first cert the same thing you got your degree in. Get the A+. It shows that you have ambition, not just that you're ultimate goal is to become a hacker. It also will give you value because you'll be multi-functional. People will know that they can go to you for basic problems. That's why I'm going for it.

It certainly puts the key in and removes the chain. How heavy the door and how easy it is to open it, depends a bit on your experience too
