After many months of procrastinating I finally set up a date to take the test. I then studied in earnest.
I started out using the WGU provided LABSIM. I had a hard time staying awake and I thought in
some area's was a little more geared toward a the SCCP than the Security +. A little too in depth.
I ended up using Darril Gibson's book, and his online premium site. I
also used
https://www.cybrary.it/course/comptia-security-plus/ to clear up some
areas and
www.examcompass.com. Examcompass had a real good quiz for malware and port quiz.
If I had to pick one study resource and one only it would be Darril Gibson's. His premium site really prepared me for the performance based questions. Total actual study time was 2 weeks with no prior security experience other than what you get with the CCNA.
I was shocked when the final score showed a 894..
