Darrill's Study Guide and GCGA premium were lifesavers! I got an 802 out of 850. Hopefully this will help me transition into an IT role in the Defense industry.

That said, I would recommend reading the book and getting a general understanding of the material and then tackling the practice exams in his premium content. His explanations on subnetting and the practical exercises were particularly helpful. In the end, it is important to know why the correct answer is correct and why the incorrect answers are incorrect. As long as you nail this concept you will do fine on the exam! Good Luck!
