well, i passed!!
I was aiming for to break the 700 barrier after getting high 600's in A+, but alas, not quite. A pass is a pass however!

I totally agree with whats been said about N+ requiring slightly more understanding than memorizing (compared to A+). I think this makes it more interesting though, and thats why we should be doing these certs, isn't it?!

Veteran's Son: I think if you take the same approach and attitude toward your N+ work as you did with A+, then you'll definitely be able to pass - especially with prior knowledge! The exam is of a very similar nature to A+... if you know it then the question takes all of 10 seconds to read and answer! Good luck.

One more thing; I used the Mike Meyers' book again, but found it to be slightly out of date (especially regarding MAC OS X questions) and incomplete (re: questions on spanning trees, and MACs). This is compared to the A+ book, which covered absolutely everything that came up on the test for me! [both books were a good read though, which is the most important thing.] Who's complaining though - its not as if i could've scored 900/900 anyway!

Didn't know they covered Spanning Tree Protocol in the Network+ these days.

BTW

CONGRATULATIONS! Well done, lad. Beers for everyone.

 

maybe its me choosing the wrong answer then. the option did come up for two seperate questions however

cheers!

 

I just checked the Network+ official objectives and Spanning Tree Protocol is not mentioned at all. Here's wikipedia's take on them:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanning_Tree_Protocol

Here's a couple of links from Cisco:

Was this info being presented in the Network+ or were the answers involving STP just red herrings?

 

Nice one mattshort - few ales tonight ?

 

As I suspected. It would be a dirty rotten trick for Comptia to include a concept on their test that isn't included in their official objectives.

 

Well done! I have read your advice for the test-thanks.
I started to panic about the spanning trees as i have read the Sybex book and making progess on mikes with no mention.

 

Well done on the pass Matt. Have a VB *toss*

 

Thanks for the reply, matt!
