Greetings everyone,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I have scheduled the Security+ exam on Saturday May 20th and I am a little bit anxious about it.
Anyways...
I have been studying since January of 2017 and I work full time about 50 to 60 hrs a week. I take about 2 to 3 hrs a night and about a total of 10 hrs on weekends to study.
-First I read through Darrill Gibson's Security+ book carefully and reviewed all the questions at the end of every chapter. I flip through the book every so often just as a review to keep topics fresh.
-I went through all of Professor Messer's Security+ video's.
-I purchased Professor Messer's notes and I go through them often.
-I printed this out as part of my notes:
Sec+ common ports-proto-misc.
-I found some **** online and found out really fast that it was a bad idea since the majority of the answers were wrong. Those have been deleted.
-Purchased the Security+ practice exams from Boson, Transcender, MeasureUp, and Darrill Gibson's
Get Certified Get Ahead web site. For the last month and a half, I have gone through the practice exams to a point where I get 90% or better every time. I still find myself going over the explanation of the the answers.
-I also went through the Examcompass site and found myself scoring between 90% and 100% on the different sections.
-I check this site everyday to see what others talk about this test.
That's pretty much it.
If anyone has any last minutes tips please let me know as I
reaaaallly need to pass this exam.
Thanks!
