in Network+
Just got done taking my Network+ exam and I passed 
but only with a score of 744 
. But a pass is a pass I suppose. The simulation questions were absolutely terrible. Actually I take that back... only 2 of the 3 were awful. One of them was so bad I literally had no idea what to do or where to start. The instructions were soooo poor and gave hardly no background info on the situation.
I used the Mike Meyers book and actually the 99 cent exam guide from LearnSmart was a really good study guide. There were tons of wireless questions and quite a few about cable length requirements and such. Make sure you memorize which protocol runs at which layer of the OSI model!
I was surprised I only got 1 port number question which is one thing I spent alot of time memorizing.
Well it's Friday and I passed my exam so it's beer and Borderlands 2 tonight!

Thanks for the heads up for the 99 cent manuals. I just got 11 of them just to stock up while they were cheap. Says I saved 340 bucks or so. I used AOL numbers for my phone numbers so no solicitation calls for me.
