Studying for Security+

WillisWillis Member Posts: 14 ■□□□□□□□□□
I am currently studying for my Security+ cert and have come across different braindumps sites. I know that these sites or braindumps are known for having real test questions in them. People are posting things on the forums in those sites about how all they did was study the master **** and passed the test. Are they really telling the truth? It just seems to me that it is one of those too good to be true things. Thanks in advance.

    Braindump's aren't useful.They give you the exact question and therefore your score will be very very diferent from your real knnowledge.Altough there are many people which use braindump's and fal the exam's many time's.

    The most secure way to become a specialist or a network expert is to learn , practice and understand,then the exam is taken ! It doesen't matter the score , coz you pass , it matter's only that you know and you can get a job .

    So if you want to know and be prepared with basic's knowlegde for a job don't use braindump's

    If you use a braindump and then pay the exam fee (which isn't cheap), irregardless of whether you passed or not you wasted the exam fee and whatever you paid to get the braindump.

    Besides, no one is going to hire you in a security role if you have no practical experience in security.

    If you were lucky enough to use the braindump and that pool of questions happened to be the one on your exam and you memorized everything well enough to pass the exam then good for you but it doesn't make you any less of a cheating scumbag paper cert.

    Remember that if you are caught using a 'brain ****' ALL of your certifications with that provider will be revoked and you will not be able to take exams with that provider in the future.

    Just work hard and make sure that you cover the material, you will feel better from it. Don't be a lame cheater, no one likes cheats and wouldn't you feel like a complete tit if you were in a security job and your network got hacked because you didn’t acturely has a clue?
