It was a great course, and it provides a lot of information. Although you have limit amount of time to fully understand the material. For example, the first week of Network + you have your Mid-course exam already. That was a short of amount of time to do the exam.

The course is intense, but very doable if you actually partake in class and study on your own like Jose has recommended. You have to at least devote some study time to learn all of the material from the first course with about 10-12 extra.
