in Security+
Went into the test center with the confidence of 1000 Fonzies, left pretty surprised I passed lol.
Passed with a 773/900. Used pretty much all of Gibson's materials and the test was still pretty difficult. CompTIA really knows how to be ambiguous with their question wording and answer choices. If I had to do it all over again I'd definitely utilize more sources of study material.
As well put together as Gibson's and Messer's material is, it's too straight forward than the actual test itself is.
Not sure where to go from here, maybe CCNA:Datacenter or CCNA:Collabo, or maybe CASP.
Good luck to you all. Study hard.

Proverbs 6:6-11Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise, Which, having no captain, Overseer or ruler, Provides her supplies in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest. How long will you slumber, O sluggard?
When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep, So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler And your need like an armed man. -
