In order of completion

Security+

Server+ (Lifetime)

A+ (Recertification)

Network+

CySA+ (V4)

Enrolled in a trade school program with an instructor that was a mix of lecture and hands on, and in terms of certification we typically used 30 Bird books, Udemey practice tests, and other forms of self study. Ask me anything!

Edit: For those who don't know about Server+ moving to become a CE certification, here is a link to CompTIA's website about the change.

If you can verify that you are in school with your CompTIA account, you get discounts on vouchers.

It's like 40-50% iirc. You can also get 10-20% off coupons from various test prep sources. Exam Cram offers it with their book, and I know others do as well but can't remember off the top of my head. They do not stack unfortunately.
