in A+
Just finished the 802 a couple of hours ago. It certainly feels good to get that out of the way.

I used the Mike Meyers book.

    Thanks.

    The biggest piece of advice I can give everyone is to read the questions carefully. My bad habit was to read half of the question and then select the answer in a rush.

    Hi Tenor,

    Did you also use any study material or anything to prepare for the exam besides the book?

    thanks

    Hi,

    Nothing else besides the practice exam on the CD that came with the book.

    Hi Tenor,

    another question if you don't mind me asking, how many questions are there for each exam and also what tips or advice would you suggest?

    thanks in advance!

    Which one of Mike's books did you use? How long did you study? Did you read every word or just do reviews and tests?

    @Dakinggamer87;
    Thanks.

    @Darril
    Thank you. Actually, your book is next!

    @TrainingCamp

    @Kopite_21

    Thanks.

    @aleynes0627
    Sorry for not responding sooner.

    Honestly, I can't remember the amount of questions per exam now. Maybe 100?

    The biggest piece of advice I can give you is if you don't know the answer to a certain question, don't let if frustrate you and just move on to the next. Also, try not to second guess yourself when answering a question. I find that whenever I change an answer, I usually get it wrong.

    Also, as I stated before, read the entire question before answering.

    @BobNakamura
    Thanks!

    @sendalot
    I really didn't. It kind of caught me off guard, but I was able to get them correct.

    @psylow
    8th edition. I read every last word of the book. A co-worker/friend of mine bought the book at the same time and we kept each other going. We both took the exam and passed. I studied for about 2-3 weeks off and on and crammed the night before the exam. I'm already in the field, so I think that helped as well.

    @Macpro76

    Thank you.
