For entry level, you are likely better off going with learning MSSQL. There's just a bigger market there. Also, agree with phonic that A+ is not for your field at all.

Thanks for the suggestions. Do you guys know of where I can get certified for MSSQL or MySQL cheaper? I have been looking around and it looks like it's pretty expensive to get these certifications.
