And my next choice is Security+...

Hi All,

After a little while on study holiday, I've decided to start up again (before my son is born) and get my Security+.

I already have the learnkey course, just got the preplogic practice exam, waiting for the voucher redemption from preplogic (can take up to 4-6 weeks) and thinking about getting the examcram security+ book (I've gotten on well with examcram books with comptia exams in the past).

Does anyone else have any other suggestions/tips?

I've already heard that the Security+ exam is written poorly and has the highest pass mark: 764

    First off, congrats on the yet-to-be-born son! :D

    I used the Exam Cram, and it is great exam prep material. I also used the All-In-One book from Gregory White. This book was very good (especially on PKI), but a little outdated.

    Good luck!

    Here was my experience: http://techexams.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=22493

    The syngress pdf e-book for $9 was a phenomenal aid; it was comprehensive and well-written.

    I used the Syngress book along with Technotes from this site. I got the Syngree book from Amazon.com for $10. The cheapest I could find on there now is $25. Good Luck!
