Well, I found the A+ exam to be tricky. In studying for it, I learned that its content reflected very little of my real-world experience, and I had quite a bit of real-world experience at the time I took it. I had been repairing and building computers from scratch for years, and understood them inside and out--but I still had to memorize a bunch of weird crap to pass the exam.
In the end, I aced it--but largely because I made a point of studying what they expected me to know, which didn't necessarily correspond with what mattered in real life. I found I-Net+ and Network+ to not suffer from this problem quite as much.
