Hi all,

Thought I’d let you know I passed the N+ with 640. Feels great but I feel absolutely shattered! Have done 3 exams in 3 months. (A+ and N+)

I probably could of got a better pass score but didn’t have as much study time as I wanted (my work pays and books my exams for me). Anyways a pass is a pass and on to the next one, but first a round of drinks and some relaxation time, who’s with me

Congrats on the pass! As you say - a pass is a pass!

Harry.

 

Congrats on the pass mate! How did you find it? Any topics I should concentrate on?

 

Congrats on the pass. Can you give an overview of what you used to stuy?

What exam are you looking at next?

 

I used the N+ sybex book by David Groth which I found fine because not only have I been IT for a while but I used the sybex book for my A+

Not sure what I can and can’t say but I would advise people to know:

Ethernet and FDDI cable types off by heart e.g. 10base-T, 1000base-SX. know what cables they use, how far they can travel what connectors they use.

Know all topology's, wireless connections(& WAP's), DHCP, DNS and how they all operate.

and lastly how Microsoft, Netware, Mac os x and unix/linux clients and servers interact with each other, what protocols and software is needed for them to interact with each other.

I would say they are the key points but trust me you do need to read up on everything.

 

Congratulations on the pass, Matt. You've been studying and taking tests at a breakneck speed. Why don't you take a breather before going on to the next challenge. Your body and brain could probably use the break.

 

Congrats on the pass

 

Congrats!

 

Grats , not got the N+ yet but I think my head would have exploded if I had gone at that speed on the A+

 

Thanks all, I think my next exam will be Microsoft XP (70-270).

I tell you Tripwire45 the dedication I've got for getting exams is huge, although I've been in IT for a while my age is still young and I do need qualifications as well as my experience to progress, but your defiantly right I need a break, my eyes have been hurting (think it’s through eye strain) and I’ve been getting headaches reading, might need reading glasses. I’m glad I’ve got the dedication to get these quals but I need to learn to rest, I’ve done so much revising of late I ended up confusing myself.

All ok now, but will take a couple of weeks out and get back to doing simple things like reading the newspaper on the train and watching TV after work! ahhh the simple pleasures in life!

 

well done Matt - definitely grab a few beers tonight

 

Well done mate

 

Congratulations

 

Well done mate...you're showing us all up

 

Congrats dude! And take Trip's advice and get some rest. The hardest exams are over so now you can take your time and study MCSA.

 

Congrats on the pass mate.
