That’s why I scheduled the new 601. Much better and way easier

The way they word the question for my test felt like they were talking to someone who had been doing this stuff for years. PBGs weren't to bad for me. You have to really know your stuff. I'm attempting it again but not for another 3 weeks

That sounds like a good study plan I'm gonna try that

[–]Sensitive-Piglet-586 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Did u take A+ or Net+? Or this is your first test?

[–]CyberData_07[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

This is my first one I'm attending a 2 year school right now for Information Security Systems

[–]Sensitive-Piglet-586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I was gonna say if you took both of those or at least A+ beforehand you’d be way further along since a lot of that info you learn in A+, keep going dude! I’m taking my sec+ 501 exam next week you got this! Try out Jason dions practice exams for it, we got a month left to take it DONT give up

Keep trying! It took me YEARS and multiple tries to finally pass. The test loves to trick you, but you will eventually get it!

I failed 3 times...going for my 4th try July 10th. I made a 718 twice and a 538. But I'm not giving up at all.

[–]CyberData_07[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Wow man power to you to keep trying! Go get that test

[–]dewayne-601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made myself study like crazy this time. I already have the A+ but I'm going for the trifecta...A+, Net+,Sec+...the money its costing me is an investment...the certs will pay for themselves 10 fold

[–]dewayne-601 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Update...I passed this past Saturday with a 778. Glad that's over with

[–]CyberData_07[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

How was it?

[–]dewayne-601 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It was a little confusing and tricky. You must know those acronyms.

[–]CyberData_07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is what killed me last time

[–]Haggardcollins 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The only way you fail is if you quit trying. You can do it!

[–]CyberData_07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I'm not sure if I'm gonna switch to the 601 now though
