I passed with an 808. I have to admit though, the first 20 questions (btw there were only 90 questions, I thought 100?) had me completely certain that I was going to fail. It wasn't the material either. You know how you could be reading a book, engulfed in the fantasy world, and then you're stopped dead in your tracks because of a grammatical error / wrong spelling / awkward sentence and it throws you out of the story? A LOT of my questions felt like they did not form sentences and it made it much more difficult to answer. (It was like working with outsourced tech support!
Maybe that's a new objective?? haha)
The biggest help for those questions was knowing exacly what each possible answer meant. Then I could eliminate the ones that I knew didn't fit the question.
Simulations weren't terrible, but it's definitely different. It seems like they have improved a little, based on older threads that made me think I would hate them. It would have been nice to have practice tests with simulators though, which I didn't include in my study habits. I used Meyers Network+ after having a good experience with his A+ book, as well as watching all of the Professor Messer videos (What a guy, hey?).
I think I'll have to dive into Darril's Security+ book now
