Is two months for constant studying on Security + plenty of time?

Does the all in one exam guide help or should I invest in additional resources?
Thanks,
Drew

    Considering your current certifications; 2 months is plenty of time.

    I recommend multiple study sources(pick your poison) :
    a.) Darril Gibson's Sec+ Book "Get Certified Get Ahead"
    b.) A CBT of your choice
    c.) Study Guide here at techexams for additional info
    d.) A ucertify/transcender collection of practice tests.

    Sure. 2 months is more than enough. If you have the time to read a chapter a day, you could easily knock it out in 1.

    I spent maybe 1.5 months on and off studying and read two entire books front to back on it (usually when I picked one up, I'd read a chapter).

    Darril's book is a great resource, so make sure that's one of them!

    I am using Darril's book and am trying to read 1 chapter a day as well, if i stay on schedule i will finish the book 2 days before my test is scheduled and i can use those days to tear through more transcenders, of course the final exam in the book, and my notes. If i flop on the practice tests 2 days before the exam i can always reschedule.
