anyway, life has now well past the security + certs now... so not
bothered of it anymore.. Am now just trying to get my "homework"
right....... i have setup a small network at my home... am trying out
various configurations on it.... am also getting small works like to
configure routers for a startup company....

Big certs like Cissp can wait till i atleast get a 4 yr exp in
industry.. who knows, if i fare well maybe my employer would pay for
it. But i am seriously looking to get  "starting" certs to get me
started with a company... any takers??.... can someone give me a clue
as to what certs i must be aiming for??.. i want the absolute minimum
necessary to enter into the sys admin dept..

thanks
joel.

Hehe, the exam is scored on a scale, I believe 100-900 with 900 being a perfect score. So 12 points may translate to 
just missing one question of x amount of weight. I think you need what translates to an 80% to pass, but anyone really 
curious should check the CompTia site for the specifics.



<- snip ->

Security+ requires a 97 to pass??!
