I was pleasantly surprised today when I was notified that these will be my "required" reading for the next semester :) Just about all of it stuff I would have bought on my own!

    Darrill Gibson's book for Security + is all you need to pass it.

    I'm 4 classes away from my BA but won't be taking classes in the Spring due to me needing to focus on my CISSP, which is due NLT 18 May 14.

    I recently got the Sybex CISSP Study Guide, CISSP AIO, and Sybex Linux+ Study Guide. Not interested in attempting Linux+ at the moment. I just got it since it'd be a good refresher for some work related tasks.

    "Terrorism and Homeland Security" by Jonathan R. White. Not sure about the book for the other class.

    @Santaowns, when/if I do sit for the S+ I plan on getting Darril's book. However, this is a required book for the class.

    @Have you read any other Sybex books? The one I got was very difficult to read, it might have just been the authors though...

    @ajs1976 sounds like a interesting class, is that a higher level course?

    Yes, I also used Todd Lammle's Sybex CCNA Study Guide and IOS Commands as well as James Stewart's Sybex Security+ Review Guide.

    I like the layout, formatting, written questions, and review questions at the end of each chapter.

    @--chris--

    Its part of an undergrad cert from the local community college. I wanted to start WGU but realized I was not in the proper mindset, so decided to work on certs and take some classes first.
