I-Net+ Certification for Dummies? [With]

As with as the Dummies certification books, the i-Net+ book is the easiest to read for this CompTIA certification, it's a great review of the subject, and it provides a general idea of the scope of the test. I've used Dummies to pass the MCSE, A+, Network+, and i-Net+ tests (the last at 90%, first try). The subect is covered well and the self-tests are good. However, though I usually start with Dummies books (or Exam Cram), I don't recommend them as the only book to use to study for a certification. Always get a more detailed book with another point of view to follow the Dummies series. A Sybex, Osborne, or New Riders book can provide the additional depth before testing.

I just took the i-Net+ exam on June 23, 2000 and passed with a score of 80%! Ron Gilster, you got my vote! This book covered what I saw on the exam. An excellent CD-ROM comes with the book. The CD-ROM with it's difficult practice exams really helped top off my studies after finishing the book. I recommend you know your Networking for this exam as well. The exam is hard even though the book covered everything I as a human being couldn't remember everything (ie. my score of 80%). You have to read this book thoroughly and actively do the prep tests that are included after every chapter. And when your done all that load up the CD-ROM and practice, practice, practice! By the way, I took the Network+ exam the same day as the i-Net+. I scored an 88% on this. Required Passing score for Network+ is 82%. Now going to pursue my MCSE...Whoa!Anonymous,A+, Network+, i-Net+ CertifiedPS: I gave a preliminary review of this book before taking the exam. See title "From some one who actually read the book"

The author, Gilster (who has taken the exam)did an excellent job in writing this book. I would causually read it on train on the way to work, during lunch, and in the evenings. You have to consistently read these training guides then read them over again and apply what you read using your computer. I've used the authors other books (A+ and Network+ for Dummies) and did well. Plan to do the same for i-net+. Two Thumbs up to Mr. Gilster for making life a little easier for the rest of the world. I'll be taking the exam in a couple weeks. ..........................

I found this book to be very helpful, easy to understand and not boring at all. The humor kept the topic light enough to keep me reading through the entire book. I passed without any problems. Am not a professional, but hope to be.

The author should have been a college instructor. This book is used at our college in a required course. Teaches everything you need to know, makes you think, and teaches ALOT! Great explanations and examples!
