Customer Reviews

This book is great!

I wish I had found this book first. If you already have some knowledge, read this first to skip the stuff you don't really need from those 1000 page books. This book helped me pass both parts of the exam.

Awesome book........if you're NOT a beginner.

If you have computer experience, this book is the one for you. It gets down to what you need to know to pass the test. Does not go in-depth so if you are a beginner, I would not recommend it. Also, there are a few topics that the book does not cover, but the exams do; modem strings for example. Still, it provides enough to pass the exam.

Excellent study resource!!

This book helped me get A+ certified in one month! All you need to know for the test is in this book. Everything is very well explained. The book also contains many useful pictures that make the studing easier.

Great Book!

If you have any computer knowledge at all. READ THIS BOOK FIRST. I wish I had. I wasted time on the Microsoft Book and the Myers book was just TOO BIG. This book has enough info for you to pass the exam. Use the other books for more detail on a subject, but you wont need them. Plus I found tons of mistakes in the Microsoft book and that slowed me down. I Passed the exams because of this Book. I'm currently reading others in the series and they're great.

Excellent Quick Review Tool

I found this book to be an excellent quick refresher tool. This should be used only if you already have extensive knowledge because the chapters do not delve into details. You must know each topic backwards, forwards, up and down. For example you must know all the details of the EP Process because there will be several questions about it on the test. My only complaint is that it didn't come with a CD-ROM.
