    Got my 1102 TTT voucher on Thursday afternoon and took the exam at pretty much my first opportunity--which happened to be this morning at 12:45 am. ? Passed with a 761 after just a quick run-through of all of the practice questions on the Official Instructor Guide. I didn't go too hard with review for this one because I figured that if I didn't pass, I'd be getting another free voucher in a few months anyway when I registered for the corresponding course at WGU, but now I don't even have to take that!

    A+ GFL certified February 1998
    A+ CE certified September 2022

    I got my A+ on a dare, actually. Basically, I finished my MCSE in 1998 (I believe it was) and some guy I worked with came up to me and said, "MCSE, that's great. But you don't have your A+".

    MCSE back then was six exams and I just rocked Exchange 5.5 in 16 minutes. And I get this guff.

    Well, that Friday, I went and took both sides of the A+, cold turkey. So I walked back in the shop, my MCSE in one hand, A+ in the other.

    "Oh, but you don't have your MCSE!"

    Boss walked out. The rest is history.

    I had just started at a new campus at a different college and heard the cabling guys keep talking about going to get A+ and studying needed and I figured out it was a PC repair and I had done and taught a number of years so I registered to do both in one day and passed both. Cold turkey. Got MCSE in 1999 with 6 exams with lots of studying and learning. I had to learn details i had not learned just doing.
