Exam Prep books have been used to passed every certification in the computing industry. The main reason is the completeness and accuracy with which they are written. Another shining example is the INET+ Exam Prep.

Not the first book on INET+ I have had the opportunity to review, but this book is certainly of the best on the market today. What I liked most about this book was that fact that is also would help you pass the CIW Foundation exam as well as INET+.

Broken down and covering objectives like TCP/IP, networking basics, security, e-commerce, web design, legal issues and the internet, you have more than enough material to pass both exams. Having used this book and retaken each exam I found this book to right in line with both exams, in fact my scores went up after using this book.

Filled with pictures, diagrams, tables, figures, exam tips, chapter summary, review question and real world projects, there might not be another book than can touch this one. There is even a sample test included in the book to give you a feel for the real thing, all answers are also included.

The authors have included an appendix with essential HTML tags that make the web part of the exam a snap. The cd=rom included has over 100 questions for testing in four different formats from fixed length to test all. Overall Coriolis has a real winner and best seller on their hands with this book, stop by your bookstore and get one and begin the road to certification success today.

I bought this book a while back and let it sit for quite some time before I finally dug into it. Unfortunately, when I went to schedule my exam (I was 3 chapters from the end of the book) I found out that the test objectives were slightly altered(to reflect changes in technology). Fortunately, I found a 25 page study guide on the internet that gave an overview of the new objectives for the new exam(IKO-002).

The i-Net+ exam covers a broader scope of knowledge than any certification exam I have previously taken (A+, Network+ and Server+). As for this book, I think it's a fantastic resource. It covered the broad spectrum of material in as great a depth as I believe is possible without being dry and unreadable. The fact that I was able to pass the new exam with flying colors (I got an 811 out of a possible 900) using this book and only an amended study guide is quite a testimony to the thoroughness of this book.

I should warn that there are a few errors here and there on some of the practice tests. Also, the practice test questions range in difficulty from very challenging to insultingly easy - fortunately the latter type of question is rare and most give at least a moderate challenge. Oh well, if you take your time and read/study the book cover to cover you'll know the stuff well enough to edit what few mistakes there are in the pracice exams.

A+, Network+, Server+ and i-Net+ certified

I haven't been in the computer field for very long and had been having trouble finding books I could understand. When I came across this book I was in disbeleif that i could understand what they were trying to get across. The book is well written, easy for even a novice like myself to understand, and it threw some humor in to mix unlike most Books i have read on most other subject. It also covered the information on the test very well. Thanks to this book i not only passed my test, I passed it on the first attempt. This was an incredible book to study from and its a good read.

I passed the exam using this and the Exam Cram book. Although I do find there is unecessary information in places, it covers everything needed for the exam. If you pass the sample test at the end of the book then you're ready. I recommend the Exam Cram from Coriolis to supplement this book. Good Luck!!

Wheather you are persuing i-Net+ Certification or not, this book will let you know most of terminologies that you've heard but can't comprehend. It is essential book to have for any internet users. These book covers most of basic techonologies that is used on the internet. You probably have experience with internet quite some time and probably know more than www & FTP. As i-Net+ certification doesn't require in-depth knowledge on each technology, this book covers as many areas as possible in very organized manner. Again like any other cram series book, it's hard find typos or mistakes in these book. Save yourself some time, and get your i-Net+ certification next week.

MCSE,CNA,A+,i-Net+,Network+

There are not too many study guides for you if you are working on the i-net+ exam. Most of you probably get the one from Sybex and the Exam Prep. Both of these are just average quality compared to A+, Net+, CCNA, or MCSE study guides published by those two companies. I used both of the study guides to prepare for my i-net+ exam. This book covers more than the Sybex one, other than the fact that this book is too dry for people to read. I did not read that from cover to cover, instead, I did the practice tests, chapter tests, and tests from the Sybex book, and found the explainations and definitions from this book if I answered wrong. Overall, this book has a lot of information but it's just hard for the reader to digest.

This book touches all bases of the fundamental basics that are required for the test. I had a peek at it before printing because I was able to do a bit of editing with one of the authors. If there is only one book that you need to be able to pass this test......BUY THIS ONE! I had chance to read a few others upon recommendation of one of the authors of this book and in all honesty, they were not quite as detail-oriented...to the point! This book has given a stay-at-home mom a new insight into life.

After taking this exam with only 2 days of study, all I can say is, This is the only book you need to pass! I did, however, find a few errors on the practice tests (hence the 4 stars instead of 5). If you only get one book, this is the one to get.

Spend your money on a book that not only defines terms but also helps you to understand the application of the information. Just figuring out the relevance of some of the material is tough enough but add to it an overall and inexplicable ambiguity; it gives the appearance of being written by someone who is being paid to fill a set amount of pages with networkish facts and trivia. The practice exam is well designed in the format but the content of the questions are ridiculous (with some errors). After finishing the book I not only felt cheated out of money but my time which is even more precious. Save both and skip this book.
