Thanks everyone

I would like to thank everyone here for posting about their Security+ successes and even failures.. I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks and the support you gave OTHERS really boosted ME. Much like the support a coach at the starting gate yelling for his guy to go take care of business. It really got me motivated and confident.

I took it today and scored an 855 even though I thought I was bombing it.. I studied the Sybex books three times (big book once and review book twice) and was scoring 90 to 100 on the end chapter tests. I will say there was material the books didn't really seem to cover too well or at all. The ones I didn't know I could whittle down to 50% chance at least... in any case 855 gets the job done.

Thanks all! :c )

Thanks all.. next up is a Java Cert :c )

Sybex was fine.. but definitely not end-all-be-all of knowledge.. good enough though.

I would say also that don't second guess yourself.. the answer you want is the one that makes the most sense to the choices provided. Don't think too far into it.. or you might over-think what is asked.

Congrats!
