Passed yesterday with a 795

So here I am a lurker who just wanted to share that I got my Security+ cert!

I definitely could have studied more (I used the Sybex book - read about half then just started bouncing around it as I saw terms I didn't know or concepts I wasn't familiar with, I also used the ExamCram book and these boards as well as Darril's blog and Tweets); I felt ready until the first 4 or 5 questions were worded in such a way that I freaked out (so I just marked for review went on). Finally got on a roll and was able to squeak out a pass after I got my composure back, the big thing for me was remembering to read thoroughly and also try to eliminate 2 or 3 answers, when I started I was trying do it fast!

When I saw I passed it was one of the greatest feelings! Thanks for all the posts on here as they were helpful in my studies, I hope to become a more active member as I pursue other certifications.

Thanks everyone! It feels great. Not sure what I'm going to do next, I feel like I want to get into a Security Admin or Consultant role or possibly a Tech role in law enforcement (hopefully in the Chicago area) so what would the next logical step be? CEH, SSCP or GIAC? I just knew Security+ was a no brainer place for me to start.

I'm also eyeballing CCNA and MCITP - SA/EA (which to my understanding is replacing MCSA and MCSE) just as proof of what I know and to compliment my Associates of Science in Network Programming and my Bachelors of Science in I.T. - Sorry if this got off topic and belongs some place else.

-NetAdmin2436- it is a great handle isn't it LOL!! Should have paid more attention!

Hello,
I am about to begin work on a similar project for a client of mine. From what I can tell there will be significant overlap in terms of features.
