SYS 501 passed
I hold CISSP,CISM,CASP and a few others so I was hoping I would get this done without incident.
The last time I took
Security+ was in 2007. I thought I would sit for the newest version to
see how the exam has changed. Fun experience and it allows me to show my
students that the exam is nothing to be worried about. I am looking
forward to moving back to CISA study.
The online testing was challenging. First my room was too
dark, then the lights were wrong and the proctor didn't like how my face
looked. I ended up taking the exam in the dark with no lights and the
curtain closed. That was annoying but never the less I was-able to pass
it. I had the exam stop a few times but the timer kept going while the
issues were resolved... just something to be aware of.
Prep:
- I teach SYS501 in a boot camp format ...
- Official Review and Study guides from CompTIA (I
provide them to my students so I have reviewed each book maybe 10 times or
more)
All in all, a fun experience. But I am looking forward
to teaching CISSP for work and again moving back to CISA study for personal education in the future ....
