    Default Comptia Exams

    Hey guys,
    I just wanted to ask opinions on some Compita exams Im looking at taking in the near future.

    Excelsior awards 2 upper level credits for each of the following exams. Security+, Network+, and EBiz+.

    I was wanting to know if anyone has taken any of these three exams and what your thoughts were on the difficulty level of each.
    I have already taken the A+ exam and didn't think that was too difficult.
    Maybe rank the three in order of difficulty.
    Any thoughts, or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Regards,

    I have taken the Network + exam. It was relatively easy if you have prepared for any MS exams like Networking Essentials or the Cisco CCNA exam.

    I used the Net+ Exam Cram when I took it back in the day...

    Good luck!

    I've taken Network+ and Security+. Both tests can be easy if you study for them. Use at least 2 different studying materials. Also, check out this site. There are a wealth of informations there. The MC MCSE Certification Forums

    Good luck!

    Default Comptia

    For what it is worth (I know you didn't ask about this particular exam), I took the Project + exam from Comptia a couple of years ago and it was fairly easy.

    I believe E-Biz+ is now only available in Japan. In my opinion, I-Net+ is the easiest of the CompTIA exams.
