Question: I am a recent college graduate and want to obtain some certifications to
gain some credibility for some future jobs. I am starting on my A+ and I was
wondering what study methods you found the most helpful. I have several
books that I am working through. Did you make flash cards? did you take
several practice tests? how much time did you spend on it?
Any advice you can give me would be helpful.
Answer: Depending upon your level of experience, 40-120 hours is a norm for the new
person who wants to study and achieve A+ certification. As your foundation
builds, you wont need to spend nearly as much time studying new technology
for additional exams to gain the required level of understanding. Most
people do use flash cards, practice exams, and ask lots of questions to the
experts here in this group.
