Anyone here have it? I need to get it before starting a govt job. I have an interview Thursday and I have to get it ASAP. My dad is getting some material from people at work for me to study from.

If you have enough disciplined and can link new information with information you already know just pick up a study guide on amazon and decipher through it

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/CompTIA-Security- ... 133&sr=8-1"]Amazon.com: CompTIA Security+: Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-201 Study Guide (9781439236369): Darril Gibson: Books[/ame]

Good luck!

The CompTIA certs never seemed to hard to me, but it can be alot of info to cram in. Most of the books have sample tests. i have found alot of those questions are almost exactly the same as what you see on the test.

I have the new and old A+, CCNA(I know its not compTIA) and Network+.

I have to ask where the perspective job is. I've tried for 2 years to get a federal job and not being a veteran is a huge hurdle to overcome.
