You are headed in the right direction really. Just keep learning. maybe build a home lab to learn new shyt. Cop a cert or two before you graduate. You should be good.

Which certs will go good together with my experience? MCSA and what others??

Just got my BS in CIS - Information Technology.
Only cert I have I got in school, ICCP - Information Systems Analyst Practicioner.

I was looking to get A+, Network+ certified asap..would this be a good start for the A+?

CompTIA A+ Certification 220-901 & 220-902 Full Course

I also read up on courses/training offered by Cybrary?
IMO I would skip the A+ since you have a degree in CIS.

What work are you trying to get into?

I was thinking networking, troubleshooting/helpdesk or even database management...

why would you recommend skipping A+?

I'm not sure what you learned in college but, with my CIS degree I learned majority of what's covered in the A+ in college.

One of the best things about being the IT guy is going into people's email when they leave the company.

This one chick send her resignation email in on Sunday for her last day to be the coming Friday. A month later and there's an email from her bank, saying her account has less than $25.

I haven't been able to use it. My MacBook broke the day I was leaving to visit my client and I haven't had a chance to get it look at.
Damn, i need a lab to practice in and my job got that hacking lab site blocked.

May just cop em and see what they about.
