If you know this book, you will pass the exam
Short & Sweet....
This book contains a very accurate representation of what you will see on the Network+ exam and has good practice questions to better prepare you. If you read this book cover to cover and absorb most of the material, you will have no problem obtaining a passing score on the exam. Highly recommended.
Dont buy it alone, use as a follow up and to take with you to the test site and sit and read before test
I wouldn't say to only depend on this one for your Network+ test. But what I love about this book is that even after I read my other book that was more in detail, this one allowed me to refresh topics quickly and able to put my brain in the mind set needed for the test. I found it very useful to get quick snippets of topics on the go, and before the test. Highly recommend for that reason, but make sure you buy a more detail book to start with. I used TestOut's DVDs, another book, and this book to make sure I knew the content. Some had their pros and con's but when they are all put together you know the topic very well! You don't have to use the DVD's but my school let us check them out for the semester so it was nice supplement for the studies...
Exam Cram2 N10-003 Network+
I kust took the Network+ exam on 5-19-2008 and passed with a 607 out of 900 and you need a 554. The exam cram2 book for the N10-003 is not adequate enough to use as your only study material. They should update it completely to reflect what you will see on the test. Yes the book is easy to read and the practice questions are a bonus. Go to [...] to really get some extra practice on concepts just glazed over by these jokers. I do not recommend this book for a complete novice in the IT field, otherwise you can study the material and take educated guesses on the exam for material that this book does not even cover.
Should get the job done.
Haven't taken the test yet, but it appears that this book will be a big help in getting ready for it. Seems very straightforward. Would like to wait to review it until after I've taken the test, but don't know when I'll find time in my schedule yet.
What book did these guys read?
I think that this book is total trash! There are so many mistakes in this book, and even more information that is needed for the exam that is missing. I used this book as my only material for studying for the exam, and I passed with the lowest possible passing score. To let everyone know, I do not have a lot of hands on networking experience. I have a bachelors in computer information systems, and have taken a few networking classes. The questions provided along with this book are a joke. If you are lucky about 10% of the questions on the exam will be as easy as the ones in this book. Several of the questions on the exam were never addressed in the book. An example of an actual test question would like: Out of the following fiber technologies, which technology uses a 2000nm beam? This is not the exact question, but its close. Good luck finding info anywhere near this in this book.
