Career change into computers?

I am currently looking to start a new in career in computers, I'm 36 years old. I am studying Comptia A+ %26 N+ and then on to do MCSA. My interests are in hardware, problem solving and networking.



1. Are these the right courses?



2. Are there anymore i should be doing?



3. I notice all the jobs advertised want expericence. Will the qualifications be enough to get a Job? If not its catch 22



4. Is there anymore advice someone could give that would be a help?



Thank you for your time.

All are good courses and certs to have. About 10 years ago when I got my MCSE having experience was less of a question as people were getting hired with little experience and just certs. The term "Paper MCSE" was made up to describe people that had no experience but just had passed the test. Still many Paper MCSEs found work. Now the situation has changed. Employers like the certs but want to see a 4 years college degree or some experience to go along with the certs.
