Looking to break in to the networking and cyber security sector as there are a ton of opportunities with that these days. Going back to college after dropping out 10 years ago and shit has definitely changed a lot since then to say the least.
I'm sure some of you have taken courses in the CompTIA curriculum, any tips for somebody just breaking in to It? This networking deal seems like more of a refresher course right now than anything else but I know it's going to get more difficult as I go.

practice your additions and binary conversions both ways to decimal and back right now, the rest is basically practicing the shit over and over again till u understand

If you want to get in to IT then you have to learn wide before you go deep. I'm the sys admin at a small-medium company running active directory. Lots of smaller companies will do exactly that. My advice is get a virtual machine going. Install microsft server and client pc'son it and go through youtube tutorials. If you want to go the networking route then get packet tracer from cisco and do the CCNA course.

CompTIA is easy, go get CCNA

This is just silly.
You should obviously get both.
Sec+ is required for any IT position that contracts with the US Government anyway.
CCNA gets your company better prices with CISCO equipment.
You can skip Net+ and just get Sec+ though you'll need to study material for both.
Before you get CCNA get good at sub netting.
Might as well learn it before you take Net+/Sec+ since they ask a few basic questions.
Good luck.
