Hello Everybody

I was just wondering about self study, i have read some posts about doing and it does sound alot better and cheaper than going through a training company.
So how do u go about doing the exams ? and does the exam fees differ on the course

I am starting from scratch basically and would like 2 get into the technical side of I.T so would A+ be the 1st step

well the exams, you can book yourself at a test centre:

http://www.prometric.com/default.htm - this is the prometric test site, go there and see if they are available in your area.

There is also another company called Pearson Vue, but I dont have thier website at the moment. I will go find it for you

I will also see how much the exam costs

 

Thank You

Great Start Double Post

 

You can find both sets of testing companies and their prices from CompTIA's website. For the A+ exam look here.

Edit: Look in the A+ section of the forums for recomended books etc.

Thanks

So which book is the best for A+

 

The Michael Meyers ?

 

Of the currently published books for the current objectives (2003) that one is usualy reckoned to be the best. As usual it always pays to read around the subject - so if your funds can stretch to it get a second book as well.

Thanks

I will go and check the A+ section
