If you are just starting now, two weeks sounds rather optimistic. It
depends on your background and how much time you can put into it of
course, but 1 month per exam is more likely. And you'll need to know some
of the 215 material to pass 210 ( RIS, GPO, security )

I haven't taken Net+, I have just begun reading the Groth book and I'd
say based on the content of that book, that 210 is not any easier, maybe
harder, BUT it's different enough to say don't give up because of a bad
expirience with Net+.

| -210 was harder than I thought it would be
-215 looks quite a bit tougher
CCNA was easiest (and still very tough for me)
but all this has to do with my level of experience in each
I'm sure the same will prove true for you
