I am nervous because this is my first certification exam. I have read the entire Sybex book and taken notes on it. I also used examforce's crammaster practice questions and reading material, and practice tests from IIUSA. I feel like I understand the material, but I am worried because I hear that the wording of the questions can be a little tricky. I still get practice questions wrong because I feel like there are two correct answers. Maybe I just read into it too much. I have been reading on this forum for a while - I hope on my second post I will be able to announce that I passed. Wish me luck!

    Just take your time and think through questions. I am scheduled to take SY0-301 on Saturday. I wish us both luck!

    Best thing I can recommend is to read the questions and answers multiple times and think each answer through. Wording can be tricky, but most of the questions I've had on CompTIA tests are fairly straight forward.

    Alright, I passed today with 842. The wording can indeed be a little tricky sometimes. Anyway, I'm glad it's over. I learned a lot while studying for this and I feel good that I accomplished my first certification. I think my next will be Net+, unless there is a good alternative that anyone can mention.
