Just Passed Security + SY0-301 on the first try

Used Darril's study guide and got a 860/900. So happy it is behind me now. Trying to decide on which cert to tackle next.

Thanks Carl!

I did find the book very helpful, also had the iphone app with the flashcards. I must say though I wasn't really impressed with how the questions were written on the exam in particular. Darril's questions were much better worded and easier to understand. Maybe it was the beta questions that I didn't like. Overall I'm happy it is behind me now

Congratulations on the pass and glad the book helped you.

Many people take the Network+ first and then the Security+ but if you've passed the Security+, you have much of the Network+ knowledge down and you might be close to getting it if you chose to pursue it. The Kindle Edition of the Network+ practice test questions with flash cards (ASIN: B007IYF3Z

will be a good way to gauge your readiness and help you pass the exam the first time you take it.

Good luck with whatever you decide.
