Strong in Core & Weak in Windows,
By David (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A+ Fast Track: Core/Hardware and DOS/Windows Exams (Textbook Binding)
I took the test last month (Dec '99). (scored 90% on DOS/WIN and 98% on Core). I realized that the book went into great detail on stuff that wasnt needed for the exam and didnt cover enough of stuff that was on the exam. The book was especially weak in the Win95 section. The Core section was good tho. If you are not strong in Windows (especially troubleshooting), you definately need another book.

AWESOME BOOK! I passed the A+ with flying colors!,
By A Customer
This review is from: A+ Fast Track: Core/Hardware and DOS/Windows Exams (Textbook Binding)
This book gave me just the material I needed to pass the exam and skipped all the fluff that is in other 1000+ page books. It is lacking somewhat in modem coverage; and the EP Process labels in the chapter on printers follow the HP model rather than the IBM version, but NYC's review below is way off. If you get this book, pick up New Rider's A+ Top Score Software to test yourself. It matches up real well with the book.

I wish I had found this book first. If you already have some knowledge, read this first to skip the stuff you don't really need from those 1000 page books. This book helped me pass both parts of the exam.
