Hello everyone,

I got the A+ 602 to pass and then want to move onto to a next course,
Im already doing CCNA at college, and very much enjoting it! Just wanted to get your opinion on whether i should still do Network + ? as i think i would complete this quite quickly (because i already know quite a bit about networking) I'm not in the IT industry as yet, would it be worth doing Microsoft/Linux/security+ certifications?

Absolutely!

Other than the MCDST, I would say no, not really... in my opinion, certifications other than the A+, Network+, and MCDST will make you look way overcertified for your experience level.

 

I agree with BM

If you think it will be easy then why not do the exam? Having it on your cv can only help.

 

Just 1 more question, which book do u guys reccomend? mike meyers network + ?

 

That, and/or the Sybex Network+ book by Groth.

 

Both ^ never just use one book.
