Last year i worked on the A+ course at WelTec, but due to still going college never made it to the exam. I have "A+ Certification All-In-One guide" Written by Michael Meyers. With discount it was about $129.

It's american, and takes the long way around explaining points, but if you're in for some rather lame humour go ahead. Otherwise it is quite indepth, and broken up nicely.

I'm now studying Network+ (much more indepthly), and am using the Network+ book from the same series (and the same author)

Have a look here certcities.com for some useful info.
Cheers.

216723 2004-02-26 06:05:00 Thanks everybody, have already purchased the "All in 1 A+ certification exam guide" by Michele Meyers 5th edition and seems to be the most current version. By the way if anyone is looking for this book in Auckland try Tech Books on Broadway Newmarket, as it's the cheapest around for this book anyway @ $110.00

Cheers all, now back to the study.

216724 2004-02-26 07:14:00 A+ is great and I sorted out a few things for me, and in some cases I learn't something.

do you feel a but?

The joke is that A+ means you know what all the stupid questions are and the answers - including anti-static etc...

I have personally seen new grads ( of A+ ) that don't even know how to find pin 1.

A+ means you've passed your FIRST part of your IT apprenticeship.
