Customer Reviews of Network +: Test Yourself Practice Exams

Way too much than you need to know for Network+
Actually, this was the first book I got for my Network+ exam. I read a chpater and I found that it was to hard to understand and it confused. It covers a lot of materials that I believed it would not be asked on the exam. I got the study guide from syber and exam cram series. Those were easier to read and more suitable for the level of Network+. However, this book may help you to understand and learn more in depth at the MCSE level or troubleshooting network problems for you job.

Don't waste your money like I did!
This book deserves less than a 1 star rating, if it were only available!

The CompTIA Network+ Certification Exam is supposed to be as vendor neutral as possible, while still recognizing the three major network operating systems. The authors of this Practice Exam book write the majority of their questions from the NT4 MCSE approach to networking. Even then, the questions were often confusing and misleading. The majority of their specific questions or their specific subjects do not even appear on the CompTIA exam.

This book was the low point in my preparation for the exam (which I passed quite easily using other study resources). The companion Syngress study book was a bit better, but contained several glaring errors. I checked their web site for errata, but found little in the way of help to help deal with the differences between this book and the other study aids I used.

In my opinion, the best books to prepare for the Network+ exam are the Network+ Exam Prep and Cram and the Network+ Certification for Dummies book. Even these have a few errors (but accurate errata are available on the web for the exam prep and cram), and they tend to go into greater depth than what is required to pass the exam, but if you really want to know your stuff in addition to having a CompTIA Network+ certificate to hang on your wall, these are the three books to have!

I wish I could get a refund on this book. It was useless in preparing for the actual test.

Dont use it to pass Network+, too much info than you need
Well, I agree with other reviews that this book does contain a lot of information. But the questions in this book are too detailed and too many. Believe me, Network+ is a relatively easy exam. It tests you on the big pictures and doesnot go into too much details. If your goal is simply to pass the exam, I recommend the exam cram series' practice exams book which more accurately reflect the levels of the real Network+ exam. I am sure if you understand all the problems in this book, you will definitely pass Network+ ----> with a score of 200% instead of the 82% passing score.
