    Hi Welcome :)

    Definetly self study its cheaper, your not limited to a time scale and its cheaper and you can't rip your self off.

    The two books you need are compTIA A+ all in one exam guide 6th edition by Mike Meyers and PC Technician street smarts by James Pyles.

    Hi & welcome to CF :)

    The choice of either going self-study or class based is a personal one that you you can decide for yourself based on your personal situation/circumstances/preferences.

    Welcome to CF! 8)

    If you have the discipline, and want to save oodles of cash, then self-study is the way to go. I tried TP and self-study, and found the latter far more rewarding.

    All the best, whichever way you decide to go...

    Thanks for the advice guys, been looking around and i think you guys are right, self study could be the way forward. Im in no rush really so i can take my time with things and go at my own pace.

    thanks again guys.
