Finding information on Google can be a confusing mess nowadays

I was trying to find information on the COMPTIA A+ Certification, The first thing I did was Google about it and follow the links I found. I found a bunch of stuff that wasnt relevant and seemed to be scam links. One thing seemed to be a scam because they didnt have SSL enabled on their web server. Then I found a course that wanted way too much for the tuition and expected me to sit in the class for an entire day and cram it all in within 5 days which wouldnt work very well.

The next thing I tried is tried to find a book on the certification. But the books I found on Amazon were out of date. Later on I found a udemy course that was on sale, though by the time I have the money for it Id have to pay full price. But the full price is pretty reasonable and I may be able to get it covered being in the mental health rehab or I can save up for it if I cant get funding.

The nurse I was trying to show the thing helped me out a little bit, since sometimes after I take my medication I'm a bit confused.

Looking for information on the certification took a lot longer because I was using the computer at the psyche rehab which was full of viruses. I had to troubleshoot several things as I used it. I think next time I want to show the staff something I'll just bring out my Thinkpad.
