And a pass!
CassL
I took the Security+ SY0-301 today. I passed comfortably with 862/900.
My main study source was Darril Gibson's book, although I did go through some of Professor Messer's videos to have an alternate viewpoint on some of the things I was having issues with.
I tested myself with some practice tests I found online, and I was worried because I usually was scoring around 85% on those. I had no problems on the exam itself, though, as those questions seemed easier than the practice tests I was using.

Congrats, I just passed Sec+ myself about a week ago. Sounds like we had a similar experience- I too used Darril Gibson's book, watched a few Messer videos on a handful of topics I was so-so on, and passed with a score almost the same as yours!
