Book Reviews of CompTIA A+ Complete Study Guide: (Exams 220-601/602/603/604)
Book Review: Excellent, but a little out dated
Summary: 3 Stars
This is an excellent book, but it has become outdated with the advent of Vista and Windows Server 2008.Book Review: Study Guide not Adequate
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm a pretty thorough studier, read *every page*, took all the chapters tests, made my own notes, and took all the CD-ROM tests repeatedly... yet only 75% of the material was covered on the test. I passed, but it was only because I had experience in those areas to be able to answer them well enough. I've been off the field for a few years and wanted to take the certification to not only get caught up, but also clear the new exam as well.
I was just a little disappointed that the book didn't adequately prepare me as the "Complete Study Guide" said it would. There were at least 20-25 questions per exam that were not in the book at all... and to let you know, it takes only 25 questions to miss to fail the exam.
The book was a bit disorganized in the new security chapter, and while the rest of the book was organized pretty well... covering only 75% isn't a "Complete Study Guide" and unfortunately is worthy of only two stars.
Book Review: Cracked CD
Summary: 1 Stars
I saw the review left by G. Waggoner before I purchased the book and was kind of worried. Well, my worries were justified. I received the book and the CD was cracked. I then got the replacement and the CD was also cracked. I will now think twice before ordering any books which are supplemented with a CD from Amazon.Book Review: Cracked CD/tutorial - Twice!
Summary: 1 Stars
I ordered this product and the CD was cracked. Ordered a replacement and it was cracked also!
Beware!
