Last year I was seriously into bulding and repairing PC's and achieving my
A+ cert. After a year gone by, I sort of dwindled away from that goal,
because of work and so forth.

I have presently decided to go after this goal again because there is so
much promise with this one certification. I am going to go for it in full
force. I am also going to work though, which is a good job in itself. My
goal is to gain PC Tech status and start a little p/t lab and operation from
home, which I have styarted to do.

My questions are:

1. What changes have been made with the new exams since last year?

2. Any good sites on the internet where I can read up on the latest
technology? (I would like a few, if possible)

3. What are the best study programs out there? Mike Meyers?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

can anyone help me....??

I liked Mike Meyer's book, but I already new much of the material. Not
sure how good it is for folks without loads of experience, but I liked
it. I also like the practice tests it had in the CD.

Hi Bacchus
I took the A+ Core and it is pretty straight forward if you study
with the mike meyers a+ cert book. I also used the Trancenders
and they emulate the test as its given now.

I passed the Core and am studying for the OS now and I think Mike Meyers
Book is the Best that I've used out of the 8 - 10 I've been using. I also
went
to classes at Dorsey College and they elected to use the Mike Meyers book
starting this term after I requested it. The Lab Manual for the book also
has
alot of good exercises and material.

I am hoping that the updated material for the 5th ed. of the Mike Meyers
book is posted to their website for free like the rest of the updates.

from what I see the core exam with 80 questions really tests your
ability with basics and you have to think since they really word the
questions
badly. many of the questions are confusing due to the wording, but hang in
there and before the end of the exam you'll recognize your success.

Good Luck and Success with your A+ Prep.
