    Know a Good Security + Practice Test?

    Thanks for the information...I have been trying to remember hints to differentiate between MAC, DAC, RBAC, asymetric/symetric, etc. From the study questions in TestOut (which I always look over b4 actually going through the course material), I seem to recall seeing a lot of these throughout A+...

    Know a Good Security + Practice Test?

    I used Specialized Solutions and TestOut. Studied 1.5 months for my Network+, which I passed this morning with 845/900. I watched the course videos, studied the materials, then went over & over (& over more) the practice questions until I scored 96% or better. I would say that it definitely...

    What do I need?

    I am a bit an*l when it comes to persistence. I am hoping that my BG in law enforcement, certs, and schooling will land me a good job. I do not expect anything extravagant, especially starting out, but I would like to make a decent living. I plan on applying to the private sectors. I would...

    MCSA / MCSE Track Question

    Phew...I should have started this endeavor in my late teens to early twenty's. I do appreciate all the help. ____________________ CompTIA A+

    What do I need?

    I want to have a good foundation to start with on the computer path. I have opened a pc repair business on the side to offset some of the software and exam costs. My plans are this: Network+, Security+, MCSA, MCSE, then go back to finish my bachelor's degree in "Cyber Security". I am...

    MCSA / MCSE Track Question

    So I understand from the information you posted and the links, that if I pass the S+ exam, complete "70-290, 70-291, and a client OS exam (either 70-270 or 70-620)" on my way to completeing the MCSE, I automatically qualify for the MCSA. I understand that once you pass one exam from M$, they...

    MCSA / MCSE Track Question

    I was curious about something myself. The 3 (other than the Security+ elective) MCSA exams appear to be the same as MCSE. If I take those 3 exams as well as the Security+, I will be MCSA certified. Do those 3 exams count toward the MCSE too, or do you have to take 6-7 different ones?

    What do I need?

    Thanks again for the information. I guess I will have to look in to some vendor specific certs. I did become A+ certified on May 14th. Having only a law enforcement BG, the test was a tad difficult for me. I am presently working on Network+ and Security+. I have some good labs and study...

    What do I need?

    I was curious what certification(s) I will need to be able to work on pc's on the side per se. Something that will not void someones warranty. Say the customer wants some credentials to assure them they can trust you for the work. Thanks guys.

    Pre-CompTIA A+ Study?

    I wish I would have chosen that path in HS. I can venture by saying that you are not getting ahead of yourself. IMO, A+ is a great way to start. There are a bunch of ways to study for the exam by using study guides and self-help software. Good luck, great choice, stay determined and focused...

    Opinion

    I recently purchased some software that was sponsored/advertised on the Comptia website. I spent around $600 for a two course based material (Comptia A+ and Network +). I am 34, gainfully employed, and I want to venture in to a new career that will be more financially rewarding in the end. I...
