Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Hard to Read
I have not gone through the entire book. It appears that the first few chapters a difficult to read. I wish this book came with better illustrations of each part of the computer. I plan to keep it and attempt to go through the entire book. I'll let you know more info after that.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Package
Awsome 2009 topics in this book, the cram book is just a quick overview of the actual study guide,
street smarts guide is for dum dums,
good study guide book.
Would recomend just the study guide if you have moderate talent.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great kit, but you don't need all of it.
This kit is excellent, however, you'll probably find you don't need all of it. The A+ Complete Study Guide is an excellent book.

A problem I have with the Complete is that some sections of the book are repeated word for word later on while other parts of the book tell you to refer to other chapters. If you do use the book, read the whole book before you take the essentials exam. The ... Read More
