in Security+
Hello all! I'm super glad I found this site, it looks like a great resource. I'm currently a rising Senior in college and completed my A+ certification this January. While I'm still finding out what i'm interested in, security has been an area I've wanted to explore for some time. I would like to try and complete my Security+ by the end of the summer. Currently I am an IT Intern for a small business (my first field related job).
My question is: do you think four months of dedicated study is enough for someone who doesn't have much field experience? I'm not looking to just memorize and cram to pass, I actually want to learn at a pace where I can apply my knowledge.

I'm a computer science major. I would say so far that my degree has given me a good foundation in programming, but not much else. Most of my knowledge has been picked up from my own personal interests and projects. My interest in computers didn't spark until I reached college. I learn stuff all the time that is common knowledge to those who grew up around computers which is why I feel the need to allot myself so much time.
