Passed SY0-041 on 1st attempt!
Yesterday I passed the Sec+ (SY0-041) Exam on my first attempt. I used Glen E.Clarke's CompTIA Security+ Certification Study Guide 2nd Edition that came with a CD with the PDF book and exam question simulator. I read the book twice, then went through the exam simulator that only had 800 questions. I also went through all… -
Passed Security+ 10.27
I passed Security+ today with an 833. Not as high as I'd hoped but it's still a 92.5%, which is what I was averaging on the practice exams.

Passed Security+! What I Used
I've been lurking around in these forums for a while and a lot of these posts have helped me to pass. So in return, I have decided to pay it forward by writing what I used and what I recommend. I studied for a month and a half and passed with a score of 858 on my first attempt. These are the materials that I used:… -
Re: About to start studying the A+ for the first time but I need some quick info.
The questions on the 220-701 and 220-702 are all multiple choice. There will be some simlet type questions in the new 220-801 and 220-802 version of the test which is due out very soon. I would study for this version. I assume that a simlet question is where the test taker performs a task in the virtual environment, such… -
Re: At what point do you just kind of give up?
Here you go Thacker. A template you can play with. At one point education was at the bottom, thats why there is another section at the bottom with "Systems", "Languages", and "Software". Might make more sense to have them both in the same location. Also, i'm not sure if I like CompTIA to the side like that. I was trying to… -
Re: What type of work do you do? (A+ certifcation related)
I think anyone who wants to get into the IT field needs to have a solid background working on computers and knowing the technology. It doesn't matter what you want to do down the road in the IT field. If you want to specialize in networking or systems administration you will need it. Since the A+ certification like almost… -
Re: HELP - I feel like my CIS/MIS degree is worthless
This is one of the reasons why a lot of IT students enrolled in 4 year schools end up putting their degrees on the back burner in favor of full time jobs that provide experience. When it comes to breaking into the IT experience is king. Your degree will be very valuable down the road once you've established yourself in the… -
Re: What qualifications do you need to be a sys admin?
Myself and a few other systems admins I know followed the typical route, which included: 1. Previous experience (2-4 years) as a tech either on a help desk or other support position. 2. Some certifications (anywhere form MCP to MCSE to Cisco or CompTIA - it varied). 3. Show personal aptitude, drive, ambition, and a… -
Re: Which practice test is most similar to questions on the CISSP?
Realize that most CISSP practice exams are not trying to simulate actual CISSP exam questions, but are instead trying to teach the CISSP CBK material using an exam format. Most of these "practice exams" have CompTIA-style questions, which is the format of only the easiest questions on the CISSP (and SSCP) exam. The… -
Re: Could this non-IT job help me at all in the future?
If you don't mind me asking, where are you located? The reason I asked is because the first IT job I got, I was going in to interview for a call center job calling doctor's offices to request medical charts and the owner liked my interest in computers and put me to work doing IT work instead. I'm curious if it's the same…
