Finally done!

Hey guys,

Just took the Security+ this morning. I have to say, even though I studied CBT Nuggets, Syngress Book, FastPass book, Sybex book, and the notes at this forum, that there were a good deal of questions that I was clueless on. I honestly thought that I was going to fail after the first few questions. I ended up with an 860. I wish that CompTIA had a book series like the MSPress, something much more authoritative.

The best thing about finishing this test: MCSA!

Have a great day

What's up next for you?

Congrats man... I'm going to start the study process for that soon as well. I have my MCSE 2003 with security focus so that Security+ will give me a specialization on my MCSE which is nice.

How long did you spend studying for it?

I've been in this class at college for 2 months or so, but I "studied"(focused on) it for about a month.

It's Cisco time! I'm really enjoying studying for the CCNA.

That's a very pertinent criticism of the CompTIA Approved Quality Curriculum scheme - and one that I'm sure many of us who have taken Security+ would echo.

Of course, it could be that the various text books do keep to the defined curriculum - its just that the exams themselves tend to wander "off piste".

Congratulations, anyway, on your pass.
